Summary

This quote suggests that having a Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree can lead someone to possess an unwavering confidence in their decisions, despite the possibility of being wrong.

In other words, while an MBA may provide expertise, it does not guarantee infallibility. This quote highlights the importance of acknowledging one's limitations and being open to considering alternative perspectives and learning from mistakes.
