Do You Really Need to Go to Business School?

A lot of people tend to believe that you can learn business skills only when you go to business skill, however, that is not the case. You can see a lot of millionaires and billionaires who never attended business school yet they managed to build a business empire. Therefore, you also need to forget stuffy classrooms and overpriced textbooks!

You can get the real business lessons in real life situations, not in the air conditioned classroom. If you have a fantastic product or service and a rock-solid marketing plan, you're already ahead in the business game. People will buy what they need and love, and if you have something they need and also know how to tell them about it, your business will boom. So, ditch the business school and start building your empire!

No, I don't think you need to necessarily attend a business school to manage or build a business empire. You can learn about business anywhere both online and offline.

Yes, one can get the real business lessons in real life situations, you can offer yourself as a volunteer or an intern in a business centre to learn about the business. You can learn about a business reading about it either on sites or from forums. So, ditch the business class that might be expensive for you

I don't think you don't have to go to a business school, you can learn business management through real world environment or by working in a business organization. You will only learn theoretical knowledge in business school. Most of the people who teach you business in business school are not business man themselves, they do not have practical knowledge. Therefore, you don't get the knowledge that you need for the real world. You can learn more about business by listening to Musk for 10 minutes rather than 60 minutes form your professor

In fact, business school is not a place that equips you with proper knowledge to face business on the street and make sales. They teach you mostly basics of corporate management. So many people have business skills because they had to enter the business sector and gain experience. That is to say that business school is not important if you want to make it as a great business person. For those people that pursue so much qualifications in business management, they are best used in the academia.
