Who is the current dean of Harvard Business School (as of 2010)?
Show Hint
- Nitin Nohria
- Deepak Jain
- Kim Clark
- None of these
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
Nitin Nohria became the dean of Harvard Business School in 2010, taking office on 1 July 2010. Born in India, Nohria had been a longtime faculty member at HBS before his appointment as dean, and he became the first Indian-origin person to hold that position. As of this exam in December 2010, he was the sitting dean.
Deepak Jain is a name associated with the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University, where he served as dean, not Harvard Business School. Kim Clark was a former dean of Harvard Business School, but he had already left that post years earlier, in 2005, to become president of Brigham Young University-Idaho, so he was not the dean in 2010. "None of these" is incorrect because Nitin Nohria was indeed the dean at that time, making him the correct choice.
