Seth Godin’s Alternative MBA.

Seth has a proposition for those of you “stuck in a dead end job in publishing, or if you made a not-so-great choice in getting your career started, or if you thought Wall Street would be a different place, or if you just got laid off, or if you’re not crazy about fretting away the next six months waiting to get fired and you’re not quite ready to start your own gig”.

A 6 month unpaid sorta-internship in upstate New York working for a marketing visionary on practical applications in the following areas:

design
analytics
strategy
marketing
sales
leadership
community development and coordination
technology (as a user, not a creator)
bravery
clarity
presentation skills

I expect to spend zero time talking about the stock market, industrial engineering or large-scale finance. Very little accounting as well. Not quite an alternative MBA then.

Application deadline is in 10 days!
