How To Measure The ROI On Your Global MBA

Business World

7 Dec, 2015

For every steve Jobs (Apple) there is a Donald Trump (The Trump Organization), a Sheryl Sandberg (Facebook), a Warren Buffet (Berkshire Hathaway) and closer to home, an Anand Mahindra (Mahindra & Mahindra). While the list of the former cluster (college dropouts/those without MBA degrees) may dwindle, that of the second lot (influential leaders armed with a global MBA degree) continues to swell.

Child prodigies like Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg are rare and difficult to cultivate using traditional education methods — ask Harvard, they tried! If you believe you belong to their tribe, I urge you not to read ahead. However, if you are contemplating an MBA from a global school, but are unsure about its benefits, do read on.

I am a Harvard Business School graduate and founder of a boutique study abroad and career advisory, ReachIvy. Two years at business school, made me dismiss any doubts I had about the efficacy of a global MBA, given the high monetary investment, opportunity cost and time involved.
