We
generally hear students; working professionals and other individuals pursue MBA
for a bright career, to have a successful career. Is MBA the sure shot route to
achieve success? How is pursuing MBA for individuals of varied areas, related
to rise in career? It is mainly due to ignorance, lack of knowledge. Some
individuals have the thought that having a MBA degree is the tool to have a
sudden rise in career.
Unfortunately,
it is not so. MBA, as it is generally perceived is not meant for all. It is
only suitable for individuals, students that have a bend for leadership,
administrative and management positions. Most of the students that pursue MBA
do not have good understanding of the program, efforts, and expectation and job
opportunities. Like any other degree program, the results, opportunities are
not the same for all.
MBA
if pursued from a recognized institution with high scores, industry experience,
and internship can lead to one of the best employment opportunities; pave the
path for a successful corporate career. Individuals that pursue MBA from the
top management institutes such as IIMs, FMS, XLRI to name a few, are the
fortunate ones to have training, coaching to be thought leaders, decision
makers for organizations, corporations.
To
pursue MBA from any of the elite management institutes is a discipline. It is not
only classroom lectures; every activity that students undertake around the campus
is part of the program for grooming, confidence building, communication, analytical
knowledge and other areas of development. The classroom lectures, dramatics, extempore,
presentations and many other activities that students are engaged in to builds
attributes such as team work, leadership all of which are needed for real work
situations.
How
about students passing out from tier 2 or other unrecognised MBA institutes? What
are the career prospects for such individuals? It can be a bright future for
them as well. Students from such institutes, if they have a bend for management,
and if this is combined with a combination of classroom lectures and industry
experience, intern ship can have good career prospects as well. But it is
important, that the theory is relevant to the needs of the corporate
environment and is revised from time to time. Any curriculum that is not
revised to keep the needs of the industry is not much of practical importance.
For
some individuals, a student to obtain a MBA degree is only a way to get in to a
management career. For such individuals it is only a formality, they have the
aptitude for management positions and the real grooming, training happens on
the job. The situations, scenarios in a real work environment which may be
related to resource, delivery, inventory, quality or any other aspect is what
business managers, leaders are expected to handle. The training, capability to
handle, deal real life problems cannot be learned in a classroom or formal
setting, and can be learned only in a live environment.
MBA
undoubtedly can pave the path for a bright, successful career for the right
individual having the right attitude. It can open up the best employment
opportunities from top corporations, organizations across the world, and such individuals
can also be entrepreneurs, create jobs, and own an enterprise. This can be one
of the best combinations for a bright career, having a formal MBA degree and
the inborn capability to be an administrator, decision maker. ISB&M is one
of the top management institutes having centre at few places across the country
for a top-notch management program. The institute is well recognized for its
curriculum, faculty and placement.
