Hi OB enthusiasts - I have finally decided to take the crunch and pick up my pen for PhD after 15 years of work experience and on wrong side of 35 but right side of 40 for another year?. I am yet to attempt my GRE. Planning for Sept
Now - I have an MBA from an Indian university
Worked as - HR and a trainer
Have - set up 3 organizations - 2 as a consultant and one as an entrepreneur
Worked internationally - ME, Europe (Finland)
I might not have RL from my prof as they might not be there with the same school anymore
Or I might have one/ two letters from my graduation time ( not MBA but BA (English literature) time)
But rest / recent would be from my managers/ immediate supervisor / client
GPAs have been average always
Why PhD now? - My plan for life was always to end in teaching as I am what I am now due to my professors at my Grad school. So.
Given my age and experience do you believe I will be a welcome candidate or should I even try? I mean I spend a lot of time on GRE - writing an exam after so many years out is bit difficult. And after all the trouble I take ...you know?
