Personal MBA
You wasted $150,000 on an education you coulda got for a buck fifty in late charges at the public library.
"Good Will Hunting" (1997) ("Bom Rebelde"), citado aqui.
Apesar de ser uma citação de um filme, o acesso à educação exclusivamente através da leitura de livros é uma questão relevante. Pessoalmente, sou apologista desta metodologia dado que tenho horários de estudo bastante erráticos. Agora, via LvMI, leio o seguinte artigo na Business Week:
"Do you really need to spend upwards of $80,000 in tuition and take two years off to become senior management material? The supporters of an alternative method, the Personal MBA (PMBA), say no, and it's an idea that's developing some traction.Open source para MBAs? Talvez seja uma óptima ferramenta para quem não tem currículo, tempo e/ou o dinheiro para frequentar uma instituição de ensino superior.
According to the advocates of the Personal MBA, all you have to do to measure up to the pricey MBAs turned out by B-schools is to keep gaining work experience, read a series of books at your leisure, and talk about them with an online community. The organized B-school community, of course, maintains it's not so simple."
