Today a different kind of Business School is required. Instead of creating job seekers the Business School should provoke in them to go out and create a Company of their own. The seed of Entrepreneurship has to be sown in them, the day they join the Business School. The purpose must be to create in students a ‘Thinking Process’ so that what today we call the dis-comfort zone becomes their comfort zone and what is known as comfort zone becomes their dis-comfort zone.
After getting a handsome paying job how many of these youngsters have a idea about creating their own Enterprise? I meet employees who want to make a transition from being and Employee to becoming an Entrepreneur, but are not ready to unlearn what they have learned. The result is they never kick start their business or even if they start they fail miserably in their venture. Every morning they walk into their new office just as they went to their office when they were employees; without any creativity, lacking the right enthusiasm and the right knowledge to run their business. They anxiously wait for everything to fall in place all by itself. This is how Entrepreneurs get into depression.
The solution lies not in teaching a fixed syllabus year after year, but in how today’s leaders are building tomorrows Enterprises.
It is never about the topics covered, it is always about the content that is covered in those topics and then how the students apply those contents in their Enterprises.
