      Following the overwhelming response to this, it’s clear that we need a much better MBA Reading List. I’m compiling one that I’ll circulate to my students and colleagues at other b-schools. Other than the books/authors already mentioned in this chain, what others come to mind?https://twitter.com/LauraHuangLA/status/1273737708708466690 …

      You know what's amazing? Every single one of these authors is a white male. Check me on this if I'm wrong. 100% of them are male. This is what we're filling the minds of business school students with. And that's what I'm up against with the book I wrote. https://www.blog.consultants500.com/consulting/mba-reading-list-according-top-business-schools-world/ …

      I recommend this one, although for people interested in starting startups, my recommendation would be not to go to business school.https://www.amazon.com/Founders-Work-Stories-Startups-Early/dp/1430210788/ …

          Founders at Work and my other favorite startup MBA ones here. A full MBA list covers a much wider rang of topics but those are other lists.https://www.goodreads.com/review/list/15791657?shelf=startup-books&sort=date_added&order=d …

          I have read it- great book for insights! I think it’s time for a sequel now, with more recent startups.

          Why would you not recommend going to business school if you want to build a startup?🤔

          You can see that business school isn't necessary by looking at the list of the most successful founders and counting the number with MBAs. The way to learn how to start a startup is to start one.

          Absolutely agreed. If I had followed the advice of well meaning friends pursuing or already graduated with an MBA, my business would have already gone bankrupt and shuttered. MBA doesn't equate to street-smarts and often to run a startup, you need more streetsmarts that MBAs lack
