However, this kind of training can never satisfy the requirements of the real business world. Can you feel confident if you assign an economist to manage a corporate with 10,000 employees? Theory is just theory. In real business world , the point is how to apply what you have leanred at school to solve challenges. In this sense, PhD will not be much helpful. To me, I do not want to fucus my career on academic research. I want to become a business leader in future. Therefore I need MBA to help me realize this transition. Maybe I can not learn much theoritical stuffs from MBA courses, but I definitely believe that I can develop my communication skills and business senses during my two years at bschools. These stuffs will be more important for my development in my business career rather than a PHD degree or several certificates. I am not familiar with the business culture in USA. In Europe, if you looked into the Board of Directors, you will find most of them have Phd degrees, rather than MBA. PHD is really a honor for your whole life and all your collegues have to call you 'Dr. Wind'.You can print Phd on your namecard, but nobody prints a MBA on your namecard. Besides, I do not think communication skills and leadership can be easily gained from a business school. I have attended several training programms regarding communication, presenation and leadership. Frankly speaking, these trainings do not help. |
