On the value of formal education for entrepreneurs, British entrepreneur Lall Singh says this:
“Formal education is the way to go. You have to load yourself with the key thinking. I found that originally—and this was having qualified as an accountant—you’ll still find yourself blinkered in the market because you don’t understand the marketing aspects; you don’t understand the operations; you’ll also get pigeon-holed in a specialization that is self-restricted. I broadened my horizons and tried to get better perspectives by looking at other areas and I became interested by accident in marketing.”
