The Graduate Management Admission Council (GMAC) has four additions to its board of directors. Their four-year terms began July 1, 2017.
Munish Sapra, Assistant Dean at Indian School of Business, recently completed the final year of a four-year term of a Representative Director who exited service. This is his first full-term to the board. The new Representative Director is Stephanie Villemagne, Associate Dean of Graduate Programmes at The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) Business School. Joining them on the board as Dean Directors are Peter Tufano, Peter Moores Dean and Professor of Finance at Saïd Business School, University of Oxford; and Martin Boehm, Dean and Professor of Marketing at IE Business School.
Dean Director positions are held by deans of GMAC member schools, and Representative Director positions are held by designated primary or alternate representatives of member schools. Membership in GMAC is by invitation, at the discretion of the GMAC Board of Directors. Members of the Council form a network of schools that are committed to maintaining and enhancing the quality of management education and are open to the exchange of ideas and best practices to serve the collective interests of management education worldwide.
