Here's an excerpt:
Lately it seems that everyone and his or her brother has been going back to school to get an MBA, but the importance of this higher degree is getting diluted, and it’s never really been a guarantee you’ll get that plum executive job.
Believe it or not, the majority of CEOs running major companies in the United States do not have MBA degrees. Research done by BusinessWeek magazine in 2006 found that fewer than one in three executives who hold high level positions in corporate America had an MBA. |
probably because many CEOs went to school in a time where MBAs werent the norm, or even the requirement. their years of on-job experience, 10-15 years down the line to get to executive status, theres no need or time to get one. and certaintly not needed, since a CEO is making the kind of money an MBA would warrant.
no one is doing the degree for the experience. go get an MFA then.
