Right, but with a DIY MBA you don't have a credential to point to. At that point isn't all you have what you learn?

- giantg2 3y ago"At that point isn't all you have what you learn?" Yes, but without the credential will you be given the opportunity to use it? Is it worth anything without being used? These are not the kinds of questions readers are asking themselves when looking for MBA reading lists. Many see the MBA as a checkbox (which it is) and seek checkbox style lists of books. So the length/style of the list isn't leading to the checkbox mentality, rather that mentality is common in the context of credentialization.
- loughnane 3y agoMaybe I midunderstood. I read this as "get your own MBA through reading", not "read these books to help get your official MBA". In any case, I think we agree that credentialization, flawed though it may be, is a reality that we've got to deal with, whether I like it or not.
