About this template
The Management & Business template is an academic CV in Montserrat with a navy accent — built for business-school faculty profiles. It hosts sections for teaching evaluations, executive-education programmes, advisory mandates and case-study publications alongside peer-reviewed work. The layout parses through Workday, Interfolio and the recruitment platforms of top business schools (Harvard, Wharton, Booth, Stanford GSB, Kellogg, INSEAD, LBS, IESE, IMD, HEC, Bocconi, ESMT Berlin).
Who is it for?
It suits researchers in strategy, organisation, organisational behaviour and entrepreneurship, directors of MBA and executive-education programmes, senior practitioners (McKinsey, BCG, Bain partners; C-suite executives) transitioning to research-active faculty positions at top business schools, and candidates for endowed chairs (Harvard endowed professorships, INSEAD Wendel Chair, HEC LVMH Chair) and dean-level appointments.
How to use it
Six blocks structure the document — Research (axes aligned with the strategy / OB / HRM / marketing department of the host school), Publications (AMJ, AMR, SMJ, ASQ, Org Sci, with ABS Tier 4*/4/3 ranking), Teaching (with quantified evaluations, e.g. 4.7/5 in MBA), Executive education and advisory work, Published case studies (Harvard Business School, INSEAD Case Centre, Stanford GSB Cases, ECCH), Program direction. State the ABS grade of each publication and SSRN downloads for working papers. Useful long-tail queries: 'business school professor CV', 'PhD strategy academic resume', 'INSEAD endowed chair CV', 'McKinsey to academia transition CV', 'MBA program director academic CV'.
Frequently asked questions
How do I display teaching evaluations without sounding boastful?
State the average on the school's own scale (e.g. 4.7/5 at HEC, 6.2/7 at INSEAD, 4.5/5 at Wharton) with the respondent count in parentheses, and specify the programme (BBA, MBA, executive MBA, custom). For business-school committees, these metrics are routinely scrutinised because teaching quality enters FT and Economist rankings. Avoid exaggerated graphical highlights — the number does the work.
Should I distinguish case studies from peer-reviewed publications?
Yes — and it is essential for Harvard, INSEAD or LBS committees. Reserve the Publications section for journals ranked ABS 3 and above. Case studies (Harvard Business School, INSEAD Case Centre, Stanford GSB Cases, ECCH) belong in a dedicated 'Case studies and teaching materials' section that highlights diffusion (number of using business schools, annual downloads) rather than an ABS ranking, which does not exist for cases.
How do I position a consulting background (McKinsey, BCG, Bain)?
Use a separate 'Industry and consulting experience' section, distinct from publications. State the grade reached (associate, principal, partner), the industries covered, and anonymised flagship engagements. For sector-sponsored chairs (LVMH luxury, L'Oréal beauty), this practical experience counts as much as AMJ/SMJ publications for hiring committees — it signals applicability of research, not a competing career.
