I have been interacting to many students especially MBAs and love to ask them as to why they are doing MBA.The response has been very un natural.Let me share:[Please note this summary is of a total size of 1000 MBA students.
1.Because parents wanted :10%
2.Want to know about management :40%
3.Help in Business :30%
4.Start a Business :10%
5 Good career path : 05%
6 Grooming for Marketing : 05%
This itself give reply as to why MBA courses are becoming in effective.My personal view is students are unclear about the goal of life and also the reason behind their parents sending for MBA course.
THE MAIN REASON BEHIND GOING FOR MBA IS GOOD SALARY.
To talk of knowledge gaining there are many fields where one should go but people do not go because at the end of the exercise you might gain the knowledge but it could not be converted into money.Hence this reason is totally unnatural.Good career path should be an ideal reason but I find very few are really in position to convert it into a benefit.
An engineer or a B.Sc students go for it for enhancing their market value in the job.
B.Com /BBA should go for a minimal survival in the job market.
The moment one is clear that MBA is for getting a better salary than automatically on takes extra initiative in
1.Learning extra language
2.Developing fluency in English
3.Enhancing reading English Newspaper and self help books [over and above text books]
4.Enhancing soft skill like presentation skills,etiquette .
5.Develop a tailor made resume.
The students are depended on the institute for placement.I strongly feel that if students have worked on above line and learnt an art of writing resume and facing an interview ,I do not think anybody can stop him from getting a good salary.Vice verse is true.Just doing MBA o not guarantee an assured placement.
