Like all things the death of a institution, trend, fad, or practice is always marked not by it’s downfall but by it’s apogee.
The 90’s marked the apogee of the MBA and it has taken more than ten years for anyone to notice that being taught to be a bureaucrat is counterproductive to progress.
Actually the book Managers not MBA’s featured this deficiency quite well but who the hell has actually read that book besides the supreme pundit?
