I wish I knew the answer. I know one person who took that path and he is not a super bright guy and I'm not sure what value he brings... but business PhD and then teaching position in the 600k range. I did a rocket science PhD and finally took an industry job after like 6 years running a lab for less than 100k, but my advisor was around 180k with full faculty.

400k was the salary of the university president, so... you add the rocket science faculty to the president and you get a faculty salary in the business school? It doesn't make a lot of sense. I suppose maybe because MBA is a high demand degree? If you figure it out let me know, I'd also like to know the answer.
