                                       Why MBA Has Become So Important

MBA is Masters in Business Administration the name itself says that it teaches a person how to handle a complete business efficiently. But the question is why we need so many MBA”s that there is mushrooming of MBA institutes. Now the story goes way back in 1991 when India used to be a closed economy and the businesses were not so big at that point of time people used to strive for a doctors degree or a lawyers degree or an engineers degree or to become teacher most of us were not even aware of what MBA is. But in 1991 our then prime minister Mr. P.V Narasimha Rao and our then finance minister Mr.Manmohan Singh(our current prime minister) decided to go for liberalization and with effect of liberalization the businesses started increasing and small firms started expanding themselves and became conglomerates and lots of MNC”s came to India. When businesses became large and complex then there arise a huge need to manage those businesses and an MBA is an appropriate person to manage a large business. So the companies started hiring MBA professionals and this course became a huge hit in the education market. So the large need of MBA led to the mushrooming of management institutes. But in the early days of liberalization MBA used to have only HR, Production, finance, Marketing and sales  as its specializations areas but the businesses kept on increasing and got more diversified for example in the specialization of finance we have got more specializations( just because of expanding  businesses) they are specialization in insurance management and specialization in banking management, corporate finance management, investment management, mutual funds management etc and the story is same with every field be it marketing be it HR be it production. This is one of the biggest reasons why MBA is so important and it will be important till the time big companies and industries are there. And the whole education scenario will keep on getting complex day by day till the time businesses will keep on getting larger and the field of technology will keep on getting innovations. Therefore a MBA is very important because t teaches a person how to manage because an MBA is all about management and management is everywhere be it you personal life and home and be it your professional life and office and the correlation between the two we need to manage it all even we need to manage ourselves so this program has gained considerable importance in the last two decades in India.

An MBA program teaches us management, how to manage ourselves our businesses our lives our relations and the correlation between all.

An MBA program develops our personality our intellect our vision our perception.

MBA is not only related to management it also teaches us how to handle different situation efficiently and effectively and helps us in decision making process.

MBA helps us in developing our personality.

Hi Bilal........It depends on your definition of success in life. The MBA - while not necessary - is most beneficial when pursuing overall career goals and objectives at a management and/or executive level. You will be much more marketable and the degree will open more doors of opportunity to you. Now, this does not guarantee success in life. That will depend on your vision of what success in life means to you. Success in life to some individuals means a good career. To others contentment in what they have, or a strong family and physical health, some job satisfaction, and to some how much money they have. It's all up to you! 

Overall i do not accept to understand that all other people i meet on this earth without MBA are not effective or efficient or develop excellent personality.

Just that i meet some with MBA may have more style
