C-level management somehow believes having a headcount with that diploma will magically fix their business problems or get their company on the hockey stick. It never happens.
Kawasaki's Law of Pre-Money Valuation ("For each full-time engineer, add 500K. For each MBA, subtract 250K") wasn't written in a vacuum.
