Is There Any Reason To Get An MBA

Expert views on MBA:

Found this interesting article on Forbes.com

Arthur Blank

Education is a lifetime process. This is just one step along the way.

Tim Blixseth

That is one approach to success, but most people I know with a substantial net worth do not have one.


Otis Booth

Yes, many. Teaches the conventions by which businesses are conducted

Mark Cuban

Only if someone else is paying for it and you are going to a school where you can have a lot of fun.

Gerald Ford

Probably.

Danny Gilbert

What's an "MBA"?


Kenneth Hendricks

I don't know of any reason. I believe you can be successful without an MBA (i.e. Ted Turner and Bill Gates).


Wayne Huizenga

Yes, education is the most important thing to obtain the edge.

George Kaiser

Not for entrepreneurial business

Michael Ilitch

I don't have one myself, but I think it's a good idea today for people to get them. There's plenty to learn both in school and out. Always be open to learning.

William Moncrief

No.

Phillip Ruffin

It can't hurt but it's not essential.

Jorge Perez

Never got one, so I would not know. Nevertheless, the better the educational credentials, the greater the chance of getting a better start and the foundation to allow you to succeed.

James Sorensen

Yes, it would be nice to have the information it provides, but that is only the beginning. The real degree is earned after the formal degree.


Nice thoughts... and questions to ask yourself :)
