People who are in their thirties, forties, or fifties today have not been exposed early in their life to the workings of ‘entrepreneurship’ unless they actually took an MBA degree after their graduation. The closest they got to business was playing the business game of ‘Monopoly’!

So this essentially means that they took longer to figure out that ‘selling’ or ‘management’ was their calling.

The children of today have an advantage in this respect because of the ‘junior MBA’. This program allows children to have a sneak-peak into the management of a business and its various facets while in the school itself. And this allows children to take well-informed and timely decisions about their career without wasting time.
