Among other things, Nohria pledged to more than double the percentage of
women who are protagonists in Harvard case studies over the next five
years, to 20%. Currently, about 9% of Harvard case studies -- which
account for 80% of the cases studied at business schools around the
world -- have women as protagonists.
Nohria's newly stated objective for case studies would have a big impact on the way leadership is taught in the world's business schools because almost all MBA students are exposed to HBS cases. His new initiative would be as ambitious as a previous effort by the school to make its case studies more global. Today, some 57% of Harvard's cases are international in nature, up from less than 5% a decade ago. The school produces roughly 250 new case studies a year.
