Abstract: In the past decade, managerial skills training has become an increasingly important part of management education. In this article, the authors propose that the current model typically used for managerial skills training would benefit from a significant review and revision. They illustrate how a critical perspective can make managerial skills classrooms both more relevant and more lively. In particular, they suggest that managerial skills training be designed to encourage students to learn two broad categories of skills, self-reflexivity and cultural critique, so that they can become more effective managers and more critical consumers of managerial knowledge.
