Reviews (10)
16 May 2009The current economic downturn revitalizes this book
As a 25 year management practitioner, graduate of an EMBA program, and currently, a doctoral candidate, I can fully sympathize with Mintzberg's critique of existing MBA programs.
2 November 2006Relavant thought on the current MBA situation.
Mintzberg is striking a chord with this book.
8 August 2005Great work about management and M/B Schools !!!
Its an excellent description of what management is all about: a combination of science, art and craft.
23 May 2005Half Critique/Half Advertisement -- But well said
Mintzberg's reputation in the OD and Strategy world is stellar.
23 February 2005Developing true schools of management.
Mintzberg has a formidable reputation as an educator and writer on management.
13 October 2004Pact With Knowledge!
Arrogant, greedy, impatient, inexperienced, out of touch with the real world, overpaid, overeducated and overseeing you - does that sound like an apt description of MBAs?
1 October 2004To MBA or Not To MBA, that is the question.
In short, Henry Mintzberg is critisizing the MBA education, which has a lot of truth inside.
16 August 2004Reality Management Education
Finally, a book that demystifies the MBA.
5 August 2004INTERESTING!
Excellent content, humorous, true, compelling, convincing but also alerting and worrying.
17 June 2004Managers Not MBAs
It is valuable for all HR manager to have different thought when they plan training development for their management team..
