Schlegelmilch obtained his bachelor's degree at the University of Applied Sciences in Cologne, his master's degree, Ph.D. and D.Litt. from the University of Manchester and an honorary Ph.D. from Thammasat University in Bangkok. He served 11 years as Founding Dean of the WU Executive Academy at the Vienna University of Economics and Business, [9] where he initiated a number of MBA programs. As Academic Director, he led the Vienna Executive MBA program into the Global Top-50 ranking of the Financial Times. [10] [11] [12]

Publications

Schlegelmilch has been listed among the world's most prolific authors in international marketing. [14] He has published more than a dozen books on different marketing and management topics, [15] including widely noted textbooks in English, German and Mandarin:

His research spans international marketing strategy, corporate social responsibility and cultural differences [18] and has been published in a variety of academic journals (e.g. Strategic Management Journal, [19] Journal of International Business Studies [20] and Journal of the Academy of Marketing Science). [21]

Other

Schlegelmilch put the "degrees for rent" concept for discussion, which calls for abolishing the current university practice of awarding degrees for life to students. Instead, Schlegelmilch suggests that degrees should be awarded only for a fixed period, after which graduates would need to continuously top up with additional courses to maintain the validity of their degree (a key tenet of lifelong education). ("Why MBAs should keep going back to school", Financial Times, January 3, 2019) [22] Schlegelmilch also called for radical innovations of business Schools. [23]
