Hello,
I have 8 yrs of work ex and am interested in starting a business after MBA. I'd prefer completing MBA in a year but understand that executive MBA's might not be the best courses for entrepreneurship. Would Insead be a good choice? I'll appreciate other recommendations too.

Hi. Moving this discussion to a better home.
A few thoughts & ideas.
1. An MBA is valuable in many ways. It’s a transformational process for yourself, it touches your career and enhances your net work and also gives you use skills and finally confidence. It is quite valuable.
2. Are you thinking about EMBA or regular MBA? EMBA is usually something you do while working a full time job… it’s more expensive and it does not come with any kind of a work permit benefit. It also takes longer… call encourage you to look up the difference between these. https://gmatclub.com/forum/full-time-vs ... 00621.html
3. While I did a few startups during my mba, that was mostly because I need a jockey by my time well searching for the job and I wasn’t finding what I wanted. It wasn’t because I dreamed about being an entrepreneur.
4. I’m getting an MBA well usually cost a lot of money and then there’s not mix very well with starting your own business. I feel you’re much better off starting a business well still working your day job. Otherwise you graduate with a loan that you have to pay and by the time you’ve already been a student without income for at least a year so the cash crunch is going to be pretty real unless your business somehow starts generating cash or you’re able to fund raise. That’s a lot of assumptions and the schools very busy and business fundraising takes a long time … so in my humble opinion while a number of people turn out to be successful entrepreneurs out of business school, that requires either luck or good financial backing to start with…. In my experience, most startups out of business school tends to fail but you could probably say that about all start ups, the old 10 to fail but nevertheless that doesn’t keep people from starting things up and being very successful 😂
5. While business school can help you and teach you some skills that you can use for starting a business and give you a net work and other resources, I feel it’s really not the best vehicle primarily because of the cost. You can take a quick course is about accounting and how Business works and you can take a start up course on like Coursera or other learning systems and then you can join the local small business association to get support and loans in incubator and connect with other similar individuals over the Internet. I feel that if you have an idea you want to pursue, and MBA is a detour but that’s purely my opinion.

Hi
Successful entrepreneurship in B-school depends on a number of factors, including your understanding of the geography and market, the idea you want to execute, the peer group you can work with on developing the concept etc. INSEAD is a good choice in general for business education, but the rest will depend on the factors we listed out.
