I have about a decade of experience as an engineer and now about 2 as an EM.
My goal ultimately is to own a business, perhaps start one. I'm not necessarily hyper focused on doing a tech unicorn startup, and am interested in potentially small businesses, maybe boring ones, etc.
I've come to realize I don't know jack when it comes to...finances or business or funding or anything at all.
Is taking a few years to become business savvy worth it? It'd be nice to have a top MBA (if I can get in) on my resume I imagine, but I know that I can probably learn all of this stuff online too. I'm the kind of learner that would really love structure and some kind of curriculum with tests/quizzes to follow.
Does something like this exist outside of trad MBA programs? Should I even look at MBAs? Would love any advice
