Imagine sole practitioners, in-house legal counsel and managing partners sitting down with other business executives to learn something from each other. This could be the shape of things to come if lawyers increasingly see the benefits of taking on a Masters in Business Administration, or MBA.
The US concept of the MBA has now firmly taken root in the UK with 118 business schools offering full-time, part-time, broad-based and niche courses. A plethora of business schools across the country are providing and promoting MBA courses to a range of students with diverse business backgrounds. Few of these teaching institutions, however, have tailored the ideas of the MBA to legal professionals.
