Latin America
4.7. Latin America
Middle income (GDP/capita) countries such as Mexico, Brazil, Chile and Argentina cannot afford any longer to compete on the basis of traditional strategies and polices such as low cost of labor and foreign investment-fuelled development. A new paradigm is needed to compete with China and India and in particular, decision makers need to undertake change strategies and transform organizations and institutions to operate based on high value added, entrepreneurship based wealth creation, and innovation propelled economic activity. This paradigm is creating a massive demand for MBA educated graduates across the region.
The majority of employers in Latin America are still looking to hire MBAs educated at the best international business schools in North America and Europe. What local demand exists tends to be on a country basis with few employers recruiting across borders within the region.
Few business schools in Latin America have been successful in developing an international reputation. There is evidence that schools in Latin America are not internationalizing at the pace of their Asian counterparts.
Within the region 12 schools have made the cut into the Global Top 200 in 2008. A consistent picture of the most preferred schools has emerged in this research, year on year with a consistent number of employer respondents in Latin America and stable evaluations.
Once again, a Mexican institution tops the list, with EGADE at Tec de Monterrey just ahead of IPADE (Instituto de Estudios Panamericano de Alta Direcction de Empresa) which achieved 18 employer votes just ahead of F.Getulio Vargas in Bazil and ITAM (Instituto Technologico Autonomo de Mexico). This top cluster is also joined by Business School Sao Paulo, PUC Chile and INCAE Business School of Costa Rica (which has the highest percentage of international students - 85% - in the region) all with over 10 employer votes.
The remaining business schools in the region to feature in the Top 200 include: ESAN (Peru), IBMEC (Brazil), Universidad de Chile, IESA (Venezuela) and IAE (Argentina).
Employers’ top 10 preferred schools in the Latin America region are:
EGADE – Tecnologico de Monterrey (Mexico), IPADE Instituto de Estudios Panamericano de Alta Direcction de Empresa (Mexico), Fundação Getulio Vargas Business School (Brazil, ITAM Instituto Technologico Autonomo de Mexico (Mexico), INCAE (Costa Rica), BSP – Business School Sao Paulo (Brazil), Pontificia Universidad de Chile, ESAN (Peru), IESA and IBMEC (Brazil)
