Abstract
This paper suggests that the traditional mode of knowledge production in academic institutions finds its way unquestioningly into executive education practice. By exploring alternative modes of knowledge production and their relationship to learning designs, we offer a framework for understanding what makes executive education relevant to practice. The aim is to offer faculty, business schools, clients and learners a framework for considering practical and strategic implications arising from the learning modes identified in this analysis.
