New Delhi: Steel baron Laxmi N Mittal may be the role model for B Schools, but he regrets of not having an MBA degree in his career.
"The biggest regret of my life is not having a MBA degree," PTI quoted Mittal as saying at the annual convocation of the Institute of Management Technology in Ghaziabad.
He wanted to go to a B School after completing his graduation from St Xavier's College in Kolkata, but involvement in family business denied him that opportunity.
Talking about the future managers to be realistic in their goals, Mittal suggested that only those objectives should be pursued which were achievable.
He also said that he did not dream of being the biggest steel makers five years back, but achieving small goals and subsequently setting up higher goals has led to reach his goal.
"Being Indian is a matter of pride and so I still hold an Indian passport," Mittal added.
He pointed out that India was being differently looked at by the world as there are changes happening at a fast pace.
"India was among the second fastest growing economy in the world," he said and pointed out that wherever he went, people enquired about India.
Mittal said that there was lack of education among people and they need to understand that industrialisation would benefit them and their family members getting jobs.
