LUMS and Harvard Business publishing enter into a partnership

Harvard Business Publishing (HBP) and Suleman Dawood School of Business (SDSB) have entered into a partnership which entails publishing of LUMS’ Business School’s cases on the HBP’s site. With this settlement, LUMS will join institutes like Stanford, Babson, Wharton, IMD and Princeton who have such arrangements with HBP.

This is a big achievement for the SDSB and LUMS faculty. It will come as no surprise to anyone that HBP is a very prestigious organization. HBP will put SDSB cases and it’s faculty on the international case map and some of these cases would be taught across the globe.

Jawad Syed, PhD, Academic FCIPD, Dean & Professor of Organisational Behaviour at SDSB, expressing his joy over this achievement said:

“I take this opportunity to thank SDSB faculty, Dr. Junaid Ashraf, Dr. Ehsan ul Haque, Dr. Arif Nazir Butt, Dr. Kamran Chatha, Dr. Saad Azmat and other colleagues who supported this initiative. Most importantly, thanks are due to all those faculty members who wrote these high-quality cases. The next step is to continue to produce high-quality cases of local relevance and international significance on a regular basis, incorporate and use them in our academic and executive programmes, and reduce our reliance on foreign subscriptions.”

The partnership is a result of a long negotiation and extensive review process by Harvard editorial team. The team evaluated SDSB cases for their content, language, and format.
