A new paper on the accreditation of British and French business schools accepted for publication in the British Journal of Management.

Our analysis explores the drive for accreditation in two very differing business school cultures, Britain and France, and we note that accreditation will create a base level of quality in both countries. However, deploying institutional theory and ideas associated with the resource-based view of the firm, we conclude that, contrary to popular fears, accreditation will be a driver for differentiation in business schools for those who have achieved it.
