Sir Alex Ferguson secures 'long-term
teaching position' at Harvard.
Former Manchester United
manager will begin his new role as part of a
new programme entitled ‘The Business of
Entertainment, Media and Sports’ in early
May.
Sir Alex Ferguson is to become a Harvard academic
after agreeing to a “long-term teaching position” at the
Ivy League university.
Britain’s most successful ever manager will return to
the Boston institution next month to lecture senior
executives from around the world, less than a year after
giving its Business School an unprecedented insight in
to his coaching blueprint.
The 72-year-old, who retired from management last
summer after 26 years in charge of Manchester United,
will begin his new role as part of a new programme
entitled ‘The Business of Entertainment, Media and
Sports’ in early May.
“I’m delighted to have the opportunity and privilege to
contribute to such a respected centre of excellence,”
Ferguson said.
“The time I have already spent at Harvard has been a
stimulating experience and I look forward to developing
my relationship and activities with the students, faculty
and friends of the Harvard Business School community.”
Do you think he is going to make a mark in his new found career?
We wish him well.
