http://www.businessweek.com/managing/content/may2009/ca2009055_933788.htm offers good insight into the the difference between MBAs and Entrepreneurs. It fails to mention how much the MBA curriculum accounts for these differences. During my MBA experience the curriculum focused on measurement, planning, and forecasting. You were given a specific goal and had to come up with the best way to achieve that goal, it was repeated over and over. There are classes in entrepreneurship but are they enough? Which raise the question, is an MBA worth it in today’s world? I believe the current MBA has value (lots) but the curriculum could probably use a refresh at many schools.
