Mitchell P. Koza was dean of the Rutgers School of Business from November, 2005 (beginning with a long distance consulting relationship from France) to January, 2009. During his time as dean, he worked closely with RSBC faculty, staff, students, and alumni to produce strategic growth in enrollment, programs, and new faculty, launching a comprehensive four-year undergraduate program and enhancing programs at local Community Colleges; creating a human resource management major; and sharpening the MBA program's focus on serving working professionals who wish to attend graduate school on a part-time basis. The Rutgers IMED has delivered executive programs for such major corporations as Cisco Systems, Campbell Soup, Lockheed Martin, and Graybar. He established a strategic alliance with Audencia, the Nantes School of Management in France, and successfully extended outreach programs, including BizEd, the Quarterly Business Outlook (now viewable on Comcast on Demand), the Executive Breakfast Series, and student internships. In addition, he welcomed new members to the Executive Advisory Committee, while also increasing and improving involvement of the business leaders in the academic and co-curricular life of the school. His development work resulted in several major individual gifts; the Family Business Forum Consortium has attracted significant corporate sponsorship.
He has delivered keynote addresses and been recognized with awards or notations for several papers. He has been elected to the Quality of Markets Committee of the Philadelphia Stock Exchange and the Board of Directors of the Chamber of Commerce Southern New Jersey; served as committee member for the Best Paper Prize for the Strategic Management Society and NJBIZ awards to the New Jersey business community; and served on three reaccreditation visiting committees for the AACSB. He writes and delivers a weekly business report for WHYY-FM, the National Public Radio affiliate in Philadelphia. Koza is Founding Co-Chair of the Strategic Management Society Interest Group on Global Strategy, and has served as a member of the Board of Directors of the European Group for Organizational Studies (EGOS).
Prior to joining Rutgers School of Business, Koza spent eighteen years as an expatriate. Most recently, he was Professor of International Strategy and Director General of INSEAD-Cedep, in Fontainebleau, France. He spent 4 years at Cranfield School of Management where he held the Chair in International Strategy and Directed the Centre for International Business, and, previously, eleven years at INSEAD as a faculty member. Prior to his move to Europe he held appointments at UCLA, Yale, and Chicago.
Koza’s award winning research, cases, and commentary have explored issues of producing cooperation in international strategic management, and have been published in the major academic and practitioner outlets, including, but not limited to, the Strategic Management Journal, Organization Science, The Financial Times, and Les Echos, and have been translated into eight languages.
