People with MBAs have a bad reputation in the world of tech startups. Elon Musk devalues the skillset (“they don’t know how things work”). Peter Thiel famously pays young people to drop out of school to start companies and doesn’t like to hire MBAs (“extremely herd-like thinking and behavior”).
Loved reading this, Emma! Meeting you has been one of the highlights of my MBA experience so far!
Same to you Esther, and thanks for reading! Looking forward to seeing how the next 18-months unfold.
This is great, and I'm glad that this "non-traditional" path is paying off the way it is!
Thanks, Jordan! Any success up until now has been largely due to great mentors like you along the way:)
