Your job is unulflling, you are dissatisfed and the thought o staying
in the same industry until you retire is uninspiring. Youre destined totake over the amily business but arent quite convinced you have the
necessary skill set. Youve enjoyed a career in the armed orces but now
want to make a shit into business. You work or a multinational that is
sponsoring its ast-track high achievers to attend graduate school. You
have a start-up already, but want to understand how you can grow your
business more successully.
The reasons or doing an MBA are many and varied. Whatever your
motivation and wherever your aspirations take you, make sure that the
reputation and global reach o the London Business School MBA is
behind you.
My London Business School MBA (or MSc as it was then) gave me the
condence to see new possibilities, and was a great springboard or myentrepreneurial interests. The curriculum gave me a sound grounding
in business undamentals, both at a theoretical and practical level, and
Im delighted to see that as the School has continued to grow, a ocus
on entrepreneurship remains key. I graduated rom the School in 1985,
and co-ounded Capital One Financial Services in 1994. The company
has grown very quickly since then, rom an industry fedgling to a highly
successul business. Sales in 2004 reached $10 billion, with more than
$19 billion in market capitalisation earnings growth rate and return on
equity has exceeded 20% each year since 1995. The company is also
heavily involved in corporate philanthropy and has received several awards
in this area, including the prestigious National Outstanding Corporate
Community Involvement Award rom the Points o Light Foundation. The
strong sense o community at London Business School has ensured
that Ive stayed involved with my alma mater. As well as being a School
Governor, I visit campus regularly or guest lectures. I you are interested
in starting your own business, and want a really global MBA to help you
do it, then this is the place or you.

Lie at London Business School was awesome, absolutely antastic. It was
a very intense, lie-changing experience, and I would recommend it to
anybody. I was co-president o the Entrepreneurship Club. We aimed to be
ambassadors or entrepreneurship, bringing interesting, inspiring peopleto speak at events and showing students all the resources the School has
or them. The rst thing we did was to have a good idea competition two
weeks beore new students actually started the MBA, so that when they
rst arrived they had lots to talk about. Two businesses now in operation
started rom that competition!
The School also has a network o business angels, who were very happy
to mentor starting entrepreneurs. I took two 10-week internships while I
was on the MBA. The rst one was with Bain & Co. I really enjoyed it, I
learned a huge amount, and I got an oer o ull-time employment at
the end o it. The second internship was with Google. It was also a very
interesting experience and a huge opportunity to see how things are done
at Google.

You arent progressing up the promotional ladder quite as ast as you would
like. You have a once in a lietime business idea which wont let you sleep at
