Raf Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 With nearly a quarter of new businesses being started by entrepreneurs age 55 or older, retirement is no longer the only next move for baby boomers. But reinventing yourself can be difficult, so an inspiration is important. How about Madonna? Career coach Roy Cohen spoke with HuffPost Live's Ricky Camilleri about the best re-inventor, so to speak. When Camilleri jokingly suggested Madonna, Cohen agreed. "You know what, you’re absolutely right," Cohen said. "I think they should teach Madonna at Harvard Business School, not IBM. We need to figure out who’s doing it right and stays on the cutting edge and that should be our role model."

MerGirl Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 He is right. She's been successful for so long, and not many people have achieved what she has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skin Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 I mentioned awhile ago how there should be a Pop culture/Madonna class in every school. It should be mandatory to study this amazing one of a kind bitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HolidayGuy Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 There have been plenty of academic courses on Madonna- recall the early 1990s, and the publication of academic analyses on her and her work. CULTURALLY ENRICHING. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 She needs to set up a school for gifted youngsters. I think of art for freedom could somehow create funding for struggling artists that would be amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuzzy Dream Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 I would also love for Harvard Business School to do a case study for Madonna - they've done one for Oprah Winfrey and other incredible successful entertainers as well. There's an interesting case study from ESMT (the European School of Management and Technology) called Madonna - Strategy on the Dance Floor by Jamie Anderson and Martin Krupp. It's interesting how they break down the history of her career into various lessons business students can learn. CULTURALLY ENRICHING, as HolidayGuy would say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
