Organization:Instituto de Estudios Superiores de Administración
The Instituto de Estudios Superiores de Administración (Institute of Advanced Studies in Administration, IESA) is a private non-profit Venezuelan business school with campuses in Caracas, Maracaibo and Valencia.[1] It was founded in 1965.[2] It has its own publisher, Ediciones IESA. IESA is considered Venezuela's leading business school, and it played a key role in the neoliberal economic policy of the second administration of Carlos Andrés Pérez (1989 - 1993). A number of academics from it (including Moisés Naím and Ricardo Hausmann) were appointed ministers, and the group became known as the "IESA Boys," in analogy to Chile's Chicago Boys.[3]
IESA is triple accredited by the three leading global business school accreditation associations: AACSB, AMBA and EQUIS. In the 2009 QS Global 200 Business Schools Report[4] the school was ranked 9th in South America.
