Business Development: MBA? MFA might be Another Great Choice!

Hi,

Are you planning to study your MBA (Master in Business Administration) program? Think again!

In 1993, 61% of McKinsey's consultants had MBA degrees. Today, it is down to less than 43%! MBA is out, MFA is in!

MFA? Master in Fine Arts.

Corporate recruiters have begun visiting the top arts graduate schools, such as the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, Michigan's Cranbrook Academy of Art in search of talent. More and more arts graduates are occupying key corporate positions in the US. General Motors says they are in the art business. The MFA is the new MBA!

Why?

MBA Programs are great. But they focus more on the logical side of linear sequential thinking. The today's ever-changing business environment is calling for a more systemic, simultaneous mind. MFA fills in the gap!
