True or False: Mary Kay is Taught at Harvard
Written by L J on April 24, 2008 – 3:16 pm -FALSE!
You may have heard this claim from a Mary Kay director or consultant.
They claim that Mary Kay’s business plan is taught at Harvard business school.
Well, don’t tell Harvard Business School. They are sick of MLM consultants using this line because it isn’t true.
What IS true is that Harvard Business School is the world’s leading supplier of business “cases”. These cases provide background information about a company and examine critical junctures in their development.
Case studies are not opinions of the company or situation.
And Case Studies ARE NOT endorsements of the business or the business model, nor do they “teach” that business. (I’m not really sure what anyone who says that Mary Kay is “taught” means by that anyway.)
