Join The Top Three Percent
• Mark McCormack in his
book What They Don’t
Teach You In The Harvard
Business School tells of a
Harvard study conducted
between 1979 and 1989.
Join The Top Three Percent
• In 1979, the graduates of
the MBA program at
Harvard were asked,
“Have you set clear,
written goals for your
future and made plans to
accomplish them?”
Join The Top Three Percent
• It turned out that only 3%of the graduates hadwritten goals and plans.13% had goals, but theywere not in writing. Fully84% had no specific goalsat all, aside from gettingout of school andenjoying the summer.
Join The Top Three Percent
• Ten years later, in 1989,they interviewed themembers of that classagain. They found thatthe 13% who had goals,but which were not inwriting were earning onaverage twice as much asthe 84% of students whohad had no goals at all.
Join The Top Three Percent
• But most surprisingly, they
found that the 3% of
graduates who had clear,
written goals when they
left Harvard were earning,
on average, ten times as
much as the other 97% of
graduates all together.
Join The Top Three Percent
• The only difference
between the groups was
the clarity of the goals
they had for themselves
when they started out.
