Last week's "Headhunter Challenge" asked whether having an MBA made you more valuable. Here are some of his thoughts. His full commentary is at http://www.nwjobs.com/headhunter.
When I was in graduate school at Stanford, I took some courses in the business school. Having already locked myself in a research lab in the psychology department, I craved exposure to the real world.
And I got it in the biz school. It's where I met my mentor and shifted my career toward business. (My psych adviser was right: He said the biz school would corrupt me and that I'd never be taken seriously as a psychologist. Whoop-de-doo.)
