In the last episode of the season, the tables get turned and Emily Sawyer Keggereis , founder of Military MBA Consulting, interviews Mark about pursuing Entrepreneurship Through Acquisition (ETA) after getting an MBA.

ETA has become a hot area of interest for MBAs, especially veterans. Many veterans view the chance to make their own destiny and the opportunity to lead teams again as a primary driver to go this path over more traditional post-MBA careers like consulting or banking.

Listen in to learn more about the different types of ETA and how you should think about pursuing this route after business school.
