πŸ•΄DIY MBA

My opinionated “MBA” for the 21st century

  • Including frontier technologies and themes which I believe will have an outsized impact on our century. I want to have a baseline understanding in them (and ideally some hands-on experience) even though they aren’t traditional MBA topics
  • Lower on business theory than a traditional MBA (strategy, leadership, organisational design, marketing, economics), based on my views and prior experience
  • Room for electives which I’ve chosen based on personal interests
  • Learning in public to be accountable, crystalize learnings by writing, and potentially benefitting you, Dear Reader.

Gettin’ it done

I won’t have a prof, university administration, or $100k sunk cost whipping me into shape, so will rely on you, dear Reader, to keep me accountable!

If I average 25 hours per week focused on this starting from mid-Feb, I should be done around the end of June. I could do more than 25 but there are other projects I want to work on (developing a few product ideas, helping friends with their businesses, investing, etc.)

Narrator: and this wasn’t how it played out… TODO: update this

I’ll publish my goals and progress, and some of my learnings through blog posts.

I’d also love to have people join me for some courses/readings… πŸ™‚

Thanks for reading, I appreciate any feedback.

I’ll leave you with a meme that’s dear to my heart:
