A degree is an education, it doesn’t turn you inhumane unless you were one already. I was a part of a family business for years before working in a corporate environment and then getting an MBA from a great school. The MBA helps those who have not seen the big picture do so - if you’ve build a business that means knowing when it becomes unsustainable and how to refactor it to keep it alive. If you’ve been a part of a business, that means knowing how the other parts work. As an employee you vote with your feet and as a manager you trade your social capital with most of the people you work with to steer your team in whatever direction your bosses desire. An MBA helps you figure out directions at times, or at least gives you a hint that you need a compass.
