An MBA can assist create the leadership abilities required to succeed in these areas for those who plan to work in a managerial role, with financial institutions, or with entrepreneurship, but company or personal success does not always correspond to having achieved excellence in academics or holding an MBA. Some millionaires and outstanding tycoons never completed higher school, let alone an MBA.

MBA will give the theoretical learning about the managerial role. Only through experience he/she will make a better suited to the position. As said to have a standard development to the business or company the MBA adds value, if not we need to hire someone for the position and make things happen under their control. The educated strategies work based on the previous results where the experience based system function on assumptions.

Yes, in some businesses or places of work here someone with MBA wanted to be hired, her academic holding won't be used to judge her performance and it's her previous result and working experience that will be used.
I think the MBA is just for the expansion of the professional system with job opportunity, improve in good communication skill and awareness.

Keep in mind that everything requires knowledge and the way to go about it depends on each, whether formal or non-formal, so everything will have different results according to the portion of one's dexterity in running a business or job. In education, one has to study for years up to the tertiary level to have the desired degree. Because the performance system in the country refers to formal licensed certification recognized by law, a degree is required. But now when the internet and knowledge pathways are easily accessible, we certainly get an easier way as long as there is high intention and will. But that alone is not enough if you enter a company that demands job acceptance with certain conditions and a formal degree.

Talent is not enough, hardwork is also needed but for that hardwork to work, there has to be talent already present therefore if we want to start a business, we should first make sure we have what it takes to run a success business in us before we start and one way of getting that is by studying for it. Not everyone that's successful today got there because of the talent they have, some people learnt how to become successful.

If we want to study for our MBA then we should do so because we can get success from there too but we shouldn't depend on it thinking that if we get a MBA then we'll be good with managing or starting our own business or company, it doesn't work that way.

I think that an MBA will not necessarily help build a good business, and it will certainly postpone the plans for the time of education, so unless a person feels a strong need for academic background before implementing a business idea, I don't think it's needed. One can do online courses, read books and watch videos on specific topics of interest, as well as hire someone who'll help with the biggest gaps. How business is done can also vary a lot depending on a country, it's legislation as well as unspoken rules that exist among the people in the area, and those aren't things one will learn by getting an MBA.

Getting an MBA is beneficial because it sets you apart from the rest of the pack. One of the advantages of an MBA is that it forces you to read and learn, which helps you expand your knowledge about any business you want to venture into. I strongly believe that one of the reasons why start-ups fail is because they lack a solid foundation in understanding frameworks and conducting their own research, instead of relying solely on purchased data. While it is true that not everyone may be able to afford an MBA program, the truth is that there is so much to learn from it. If you had the opportunity to pursue an MBA before starting a company or directly starting a company, which option would you choose?

In my (very limited) experience the skills that people are taught in higher education are often very different than the skills needed in the workplace. Sometimes people who have been in education for a few years have a hard time adapting to the realities of the workplace and might be unprepared to put their education into good use. They sometimes need a lot more nurturing and adjustment time than someone who has been actively learning in the workplace through the same amount of years. The education is definitively a good thing and may teach them advanced skills but the workplace can be a wildly different set of environments.

You don't actually need an MBA degree to start a company, it won't teach you how to run company, believe me, you have to understand the business, how businesses work in life, how people start businesses, how they succeed, how they hire candidates and so on. MBA just gives you a theoretical knowledge that is far from actual practical one and real life is full of different experiences and things don't go or don't look as well as they are written on paper when you study.

Have a look at Floyd Mayweather, Conor Mcgregor, yes, they are athletes who dedicate their life to sport instead of education but they make tons of money and have very successful businesses. Don't get me wrong, I don't humiliate them, I just want to prove some people that MBA doesn't matter because a lot of "uneducated" people manage businesses better than the guys who finish their MBA in Harvard.

Advantage of taking an MBA is that it necessitates significant reading and studying, which aids in the extension of knowledge in numerous business fields. It is important to recognize that start-ups encounter several hurdles and have a high failure rate. The absence of a firm basis in understanding business principles and doing independent research is one element that contributed to this failure. An MBA program teaches students how to collect and analyze data, allowing them to make more informed decisions and increase their chances of success.

I think everyone will agree that knowledge is power. I will choose to pursue first MBA before I start my own company because I don’t background on business management. This is a case to case basis because some people already have a working experience on business even without MBA. It’s either their family run a business or they work on a company which experience teach him already how to manage business.

But as a person with zero knowledge and background. Pursuing MBA is the right path to follow not only to equipped knowledge for the business management but also to have a good background on your portfolio so that your employees will recognize your skills.

I will start my business first before thinking of getting MBA,and that is if my business is not flourishing,but if my business is progressing,am sorry I don't need any MBA because I will see it as a waste of time. There are some persons who went to apprenticeship,and after having all the knowledge about that particular business,he went to establish his own business. This person will do well and progress in his business compared to someone who only learnt MBA and started his business,because he doesn't have any experience about such business. Only theory can't teach us on how to know a business challenge and wouldn't emphasize on the unforseen challenges that one can encounter in his business. Experience in such field of business will teach more on how to prepare and tackle some unforseen circumstances surrounding a business. I know someone that studied MBA that is a poor businessman because his business failed.

It is better to always build a strong foundation before starting something especially a business or a company. I am one of those people who prefer getting a degree or atleast knowledge of what they want to achieve. First of all, things would be efficient from planning to actualization. It would also result to less mistakes during process. Indeed there are successful businessmen who did not go to college but we don't have the same fate so atleast establish something on your end to start on your own.

You don't actually need an MBA to start a company. MBA is just a way to gain more knowledge.

You can learn everything you need online pretty fast, without wasting too much time getting MBA.
And you probably know that the best way to become good in business is to DO business. This experience will be WAY more valuable that any MBA.

Yes exactly for starting a new company you need a good capital , a good plan and hardworking professional who can bring you business up . MBA degree is just for your knowledge but these business skills you learn from interacting with people and experiencing different strategies.

How would you utilize the experience then? That is partly correct. Experiences teach the best lessons in life but not all the time. Why would education be created if it is not necessary? Capital and such is a given necessity ofcourse. Think of how many people have tried doing their business but not all succeeded.

If I already work in a company and get to pursue an MBA, I will do it, especially if getting an MBA will be funded by the company. And usually, the company will reward employees who excel and maybe provide opportunities for employees to get an MBA.

But if I weren't already working in a company, I probably wouldn't pursue that MBA because it costs so much. Besides that, we can get more useful knowledge from the Internet. A degree is not everything. There are still many companies willing to accept employees who want to work and the company will appreciate people who want to try.

But some people want to pursue an MBA before getting a job because they think the competition is getting tougher these days and having more degrees than everyone else gives them more opportunities to apply for jobs. Well, people's thoughts about educational degrees are still very high and there are still many who only look at higher educational degrees compared to those who are self-taught.

But if it's about starting a company, we don't need to pursue an MBA because what a business owner needs is how he can better manage his business and grow it.

This is dependent on the situation at the time. Instead of getting an MBA, I would have preferred to establish my own business. You indicated in your post how expensive it could be to acquire an MBA; therefore, I should focus on my firm and make some decent money that will help me later in my MBA studies.

Another reason I'd like to acquire an MBA first before establishing a business is the wealth of experience, knowledge, and expertise I'd gain in school. But what's the sense of beginning a school that you won't be able to fund till the end when you could have used that money to start a firm that, if all goes well, will make a lot of money in a few years than you would have spent a lot more of that time in school.

Being forced to read and learn in order to expand knowledge is a silly reason to pursue an MBA. Those who have the degree certainly are apart from those who do not, but essentially, experience outweighs education. Your reasoning to conduct research also does not require an MBA degree, and it does not specifically need that path of education to understand the framework of business.

Anyway, my main point is to read and learn things unwillingly and needing external forces, suppose to thrive a degree, is a sign of ignorance and laziness.

In my opinion people should choose the straightest path to their goals and deviate as little as possible from it, if someone wants to start a company then that is fine but at the same time you need money for that and as such it is unlikely you will have the money to spend on such program when there are so many other expenses to cover, however this does not mean not learning anything about the business you want to open, the internet and libraries are full of information you can get for free and reach a similar level to the one you could get with those courses at no cost for yourself.

Getting an MBA is an useless expense and waste of our precious time cause it doesn't gonna give you any guarantee about the business will succeed so it's just an extra degree which can give priority to picked while applying for a job and its the honest reason why most MBA people are doing it, while I have seen some successful entrepreneur or other person who is gradually progressing in their career will go for MBA and gain further knowledge which might open their chances more.

Getting a MBA degree is good but not necessary for starting of your business as they can be started with a good capital and good plan .
Business running requires your management skills and hard work you learn more from your experiences than bookish knowledge .
