Planning and Evaluating Management Education and Development: Why So Little Attention to Such Basic Concerns?

Abstract

There are probably very few college management teachers, industry trainers, or organisation development specialists that have heard of Hamburger University. Believe it or not, Hamburger University really does exist in Elk Grove Village, Illinois and it is a very large operation. You guessed it — Hamburger University is the international training centre for McDonald's Corporation and since its establishment in the basement of a Chicago restaurant in 1961, it has graduated almost 20,000 McDonald's managers and franchisees.
