Diploma or Mirage? The MBA Put to the Test

By Jean Marie Koné

Today, MBA diplomas represent a veritable stone thrown into the often complacent garden of management as advocated by business schools. Recognized the world over and coveted by recruiters, candidates and institutions alike, the MBA degree is attracting unprecedented interest. Anyone who has this diploma, aspires to obtain it, or seeks to understand the reasons for its success, must read this book. For if everyone is chasing MBAs, it's worth asking: does this diploma train real managers capable of meeting the concrete and complex demands of executive positions, or does it produce unsuitable opportunists out of touch with business reality? The MBA, created in 1908 and whose last major reforms date back to the 1950s, is based on a teaching model that is often too analytical and compartmentalized, focused on theory rather than practical experience.
