[quote MGS_forgot_password]So what exactly do you want do with an MBA?
In the past few years, I've started a career in IT/automation. What struck me from the get-go is that organizations and managers are not equipped to adapt to faster ways of doing their work. Instead of being greeted with "Excellent - that'll save us lots of time," it's "that's not how we do things around here," or "We're already used to doing it this way."
I want to learn how an organization can be set up to maximize the gains that technology can provide. How does one encourage workers to find the fastest route to the goal? How are managers taught to not assume that how things are being done is also the best way?
Etc. :-)
There's more, but you get the idea?
