MANAGEMENT is efficiency in climbing the ladder of success; LEADERSHIP determines whether the ladder is leaning against the right wall - Stephen Covey

Education & Entrepreneurship!

Many a times I have felt that entrepreneurship CANNOT BE taught in B-Schools the way it is meant to be practiced in the REAL WORLD! Its more of an Art than Science and hence can be excelled (seldom perfected!) over a period of time. However, the spirit of entrepreneurship, best practices, real-world case-studies, management games, entrepreneurial simulation et al COULD BE taught (whether relevant or not to the real world!) in B-Schools…well, the beauty is that when all of these (and much more!) could be learnt in the corporate world, people pay a fortune to learn these thingz @ B-Schools and end up with a mid-life crisis!! I love the quote “I was born intelligent, education ruined me!” and I think its true because to the best of my knowledge, till date, not many successful entrepreneurs have had fabulous education (In fact, many of them have quit their Ivy League education to make a dent in the universe!). However, they ended up making a truckload of reserves & heaps of fortune (technically called WEALTH CREATION!). I guess education & entrepreneurship is inversely propotional! What have you got to say??
