A truly in-depth and thought-provoking study and yet a really fascinating journey full of surprising revelations, linking corporate learning to corporate strategy in a highly coherent way through 3 strategy-based paradigms in which a corporate university may exist: School, College and Academy. If you've been looking for a comprehensive and representative overview on contemporary corporate universities evolving into strategic business partners who help their parent companies not only to support but also co-create and reinvent their strategies to meet their challenges, this book is a real find!
Olga Golyshenkova, Executive Director of MAKO (International Association for Corporate Education), CEO of World Council of Corporate Universities, Russia

In clear, nontechnical language, Martyn Rademakers tells us all there is to know about Corporate Universities. The sound and interesting presentation of case studies is very helpful in making decisions about the start-up of CU"s. This book is not only very readable, it also provides valuable insights into the nature of creating a learning environment within businesses. There's no doubt this book is a "must read" for learning consultants and HR executives.
