Broaden Your Intellectual Capital

"Knowledge is the key to life"

I can remember initially researching information on the MBA program, and the three most salient issues for me were the accreditation of the school, the tuition, and how the program would affect my professional & personal life. I made sure that I kept this information to myself because your friends, and family, though they mean well, can sometimes be annoying with their 'incendiary' opinions. As such, I knew I wanted to expand my business acumen, enhance my career opportunities, and attend an innovative institution that incorporated the online and brick-in-mortar concept. I guess for me the undergraduate degree was the key to working for Corporate America. Therefore, the graduate degree was the key to working for MYSELF! Conversely, one must decide what they want to master by attaining an MBA. After all, there are plenty of Master's programs out there too. In my opinion, one must consider the 'expatriate' root in today's economy. In doing so: stay flexible, and explore all your options, and research, research, research! Moreover, consider the here and now, but focus on the future of learning' in this global economy. I think one truly exceptionally gains a hold on the key to learning, and broadens the intellectual capital to new heights by taking risks. Forget about what everybody is doing. "Lead, follow, or get the hell out of the way." The following five websites will help to increase the knowledge required in making an informed decision about the MBA program. Enjoy! I ask the question: "Does one attain an MBA to start-up a company (entrepreneur), or work for one?"
