    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

    night, and a burning desire to know how to put it into practice. You love your

    job, but think you could do it better armed with a more strategic perspective.
