The Value of an MBA

David has a good post about the value of an MBA.  I’ve written posts in a similar vein before.  You can’t judge someone based purely on their education unless that is the only thing they’ve got.  David and I had a conversation about this prior to the most recent YNR Social and I think we’re both in the camp that an MBA, given the right prior experience and background, can be a useful thing to accomplish.  But then both of us went through one year programs (he went to INSEAD) and we both started companies prior to getting our MBAs.  Maybe starting a company as an admission requirement into b-school would help generate better business leaders.
