P=MBA
I first heard the equation P = MBA two years ago when my good friend Eric Boggs wrote about it. Eric’s post retells the story of a professor who says that formula is the single most important one they will learn in the two years of business school.
After just having graduated with my MBA, I agree with this professor (and Eric).
On September 26, 2009, I was honored to be nominated by my classmates to give the commencement speech at Kenan-Flagler Business School (University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill). The title of my ~8 minute talk was “P = MBA.” However, I believe that the “P” does not stand for “Pass” … instead it is short for People.
