Europe's missing professors
Article Abstract:
The European Foundation for Management Development's (EFMD) working party on European management teacher supply and demand reports that acute shortages in management teachers exist in Europe. The EFMD working party report reveals that there is a need to train 4,000 new management teachers to meet European Community (EC) needs as the acute shortfall of teachers will become readily apparent in 10- to 15-years' time. The report recommends that business schools improve pay and career opportunities and that each EC government should set up a management teaching resource center to conduct research and train new management teachers.

G22 advice on Europe's missing links
Article Abstract:
22 European industrialists (G22) launched a $60 billion project to improve the state of European transport routes. Formally known as the Round Table of European Industrialists, G22 aid include a projected bridge and tunnel to unite the British Isles to the continent. By 1995, a new grid of highways could reduce travel time by half in Europe, with trips from London to Oslo requiring only ten hours. Another of the G22's favorite projects that might become reality soon is the European Institute of Technology, which could be financed by the industries that the G22 represents.

The parental leave directive
Article Abstract:
The European Union's parental leave directive, which must be adopted by the UK even though this country has an opt-out from the social policy provisions of the Maastricht Treaty. is designed to assist employers in creating family friendly employment structures. Under the directive, employers must provide both male and female workers with a right to parental leave following the birth or adoption of a child for at least three months up to the age of eight years. For employers, the main repercussion of this directive is the need to replace workers who take parental leave.
