Is an MBA necessary to succeed in life?

Hi I am Shanthipriya. According to me "Success" is a relative term. Its up to an individual to decide on what is success for him/her in life. Taking business into consideration, an MBA gives you an additional knowledge in to the know-how of the business environment and acts as a support. It is certainly not necessary to have the three letter degree to be successful in one's entrepreneurial/managerial life.

The concepts taught at a B-school can definitely be learnt through experience too. However, that becomes an expensive course. Thus, one can use an MBA degree to help him in tough times rather than entirely relying on it to run a business/ lead a team.

No, not at all MBA is not necessary to succeed in life for instance those who want to make career in sports need not to be an MBA likewise different people different career choices so you just need to be ensure the field you want to go you have enough knowledge about it.

Hello everyone,

I am Mayank.

If I talk about myself I am an Engineering Graduate Still Unemployed (its been two years since I Passed out from college) and that's because I didn't know anything better to do other than Engineering (that's other thing).

So my point is if you look at my situation it looks like MBA is a very good Option for me as to completely change my career flow, I desperately need that, so for me doing MBA could open new opportunities and its a complete new chance for me to learn something new which could lead me towards a better career doing MBA will improve my skills, my personality, I will be more confident then, and and as I said its a new chance for me.

But this is applicable to people like me, other than that people who are already doing good in there careers may not need any MBA course, Of course they can improve there positions and salaries by going for MBA. But I don't think that MBA is the only Key to get Success in Life, not at all.

Important is that why do Want to go for MBA (or any other PG Course) You should have a reason behind it and if you have an appropriate reason than just throw yourself in that field be it MBA or anything.

Agreed that Good Colleges are the key Factor but If you really want to learn and shine you can do it anywhere. But not just because everybody is saying doing MBA is Good and Doing it just to get good salary package and lifestyle and an MBA tag, you won't get anywhere (That happened to me with Engineering!).

So again Being successful has nothing to with MBA,

Thank you for reading.

In my view s=s it means success = satisfaction. MBA is just a degree. I think what makes you successful in life is knowledge and hard work. I don't think people after doing MBA have full knowledge of the corporate world. There is lots of other things other than MBA can provide you knowledge to understand the corporate world.

In my view if think you have enough knowledge and you know where you want to be and what you want from your life and what is your level of success. You don't need to have MBA degree.

A person who want to do MBA according to me he should do from regular or reputed college otherwise doing MBA in distance will waste your money and you will not get an appropriate knowledge. Doing MBA from reputed college will give you better opportunity of getting job in reputed companies in better salary package.

Hey Everyone,

MBA is just a Post Graduate degree which describes that you are a degree holder. Whereas there are many courses that you can opt to. MBA is a right choice for those whose are capable of obtaining the work of management, and for those who are interested in that field.

Selecting a degree is the choice of a particular person. The one who feels MBA is the right choice for him/her to succeed in their life, then MBA is really necessary for them to succeed.

Thank You.

Hi friends.

MBA is a internationally recognized course. It help the beginners those who start a firm to enhance and make our business growth into initial level. When compared to other professional courses like MCA, BE and ME can only teach about the subject knowledge but MBA teach us to know about the discipline and practical knowledge too.

According to me MBA is necessary to succeed in life. It is not just a degree it's a course of personality development, the course of improving n enhancing communication skills, generating self confidence, removing stage fear, developing a positive attitude towards life.

I agree that today various institutions are running MBA programme but it definitely depends on the faculty and the individual how he learns and what attitude he has for MBA. Does he seriously want to achieve success in life by doing this programme or a he take this as a normal degree.

Well if a person want to develop a positive attitude, and learn how to face challenges and risk in life, how to manage the resources, costing, leadership, entrepreneurship, and there are many things in MBA, he should go for this degree to succeed in life and to be successful in life.

Thank you.
