And Summers has preferred to appoint internal candidates to lead Harvard’s faculties.Any HBS dean would likely have to be familiar with the school’s unique teaching method. HBS’s faculty teaches solely through the case-study method, in which students are confronted with real-life business dilemmas and must decide how they would act.Roth Professor of Retailing Rajiv Lal says that speculation over contenders for the deanship may be “misleading...
