Do you need an MBA to break into Tech? MBAs can be a powerful way to transition your career to a new industry, function or geography. Though many people also have a wrong perspective on the Pros and Cons of completing an MBA. In this video, I interviewed Anthony Buckley-Thorp, Chief Product Officer of Building Radar. Anthony was about to join the INSEAD MBA program when he decided to accept a position at a Google X spin-off in Silicon Valley to work in the Tech industry instead. Heinrich completed an INSEAD MBA as well during his career in consulting at McKinsey. We will discuss the benefits of an MBA and whether you should do an MBA. We also talk about how to get into INSEAD and how to get into leading MBA programs.
