WHAT USE IS AN MBA?

An increasing number of people are asking whether an MBA is the right training programme for modern managers.

The question goes right to the heart of the dysfunction between what business requires from Business Schools and what Business schools actually deliver.

Business and Management deliver knowledge whereas training delivers skill application and competency improvement. If this question can be interpreted to mean “does the pursuit and attainment of an MBA lead to a more effective manager” then the answer must be subjective, situational and unquantifiable. It is true, there are successful business leaders who hold MBA degrees but equally so, there are those who do not. By the same token there are many business leaders particularly in the SME sector who have no business qualifications at all and yet are successful.

An MBA can make a contribution to effectiveness but of itself will not translate students into successful managers. What it will deliver is knowledge and understanding and from those aspects springs confidence.

Most MBA graduates will agree that the legacy of their qualification results in increased confidence and ability. It provides a different perspective on business, a more analytical approach together with a broad network of business contacts. If these attributes can be construed to be the right training platform for the modern manager then the MBA is appropriate. In reality, then, an MBA is probably just one way of developing managers. Certainly it is one that assists them to move from the particular to the general, equips them to move from middle-ranking to more senior roles and can help them start their own business venture.

A recently published DTI report “Inspired Leadership” reinforces the need for the modern manager to offer values based leadership style with an increased focus on people rather than on systems and processes.

This arena along with the traditional export and import industry provides pathway to a multitude of careers. It can be well imagined that international business success requires more business acumen than managing a domestic enterprise. The traditional business functions and values are there to be managed, but one also must understand and work from a global perspective that adds politics, culture, monetary variables, time, and distance to the international business management equation. There is also international marketing which is simply the application of marketing principles to more than one country. An MBA in International Business grooms working managers and executives for careers of increased responsibility with focus on diversity and multicultural concerns, International relations and business strategies sensitive to international issues.
