Biography
Tufano graduated from Harvard University where he obtained his AB (1979), MBA (1984) and PhD (1989) degrees. His academic research has primarily been focused around consumer finance, where he has been on forefront of advancing the academic field. His work is credited with influencing two US policy initiatives and a new class of savings products in the US.[3] His other streams of work deal with risk management, financial engineering, and mutual funds.[4]
He was announced as the next dean of the Saïd Business School in late 2010 and took on the position on 1 July 2011.[5]
The school's current Financial Times MBA global ranking is 21 as of 2020,[6] representing an 8 place drop from the prior year.[7] The school's current QS GLobal MBA Ranking is 16 as of 2020, representing a drop of 4 from the prior year.[8] Open enrolment Executive Education is ranked 1 in the UK and 2 globally by the Financial Times.[9] Tufano believes that rankings only paint part of the picture of a business school and under represent the school's diversity and strengths in entrepreneurship and social enterprise.[10] Tufano has recently lauded his accomplishments in attracting more women and Africans to the program, quoting "they are amazing".[11]
On August 22, 2020, it was announced that he would step down as the dean of Saïd Business School. Over the course of his nine year tenure, the school has gone up six places in the FT rankings, which was quoted as "significant" and has not moved from its ninth place on the Poet and Quants composite list of best international programs. [12] In this same interview, there were unsubstantiated claims that Peter Tufano was in the running for the next dean of Harvard Business School.
Academics
Tufano developed over 50 case studies and created three new MBA courses at Harvard. He has also offered versions of these courses in various Executive Education programmes.[citation needed]
