At the end of the day efficiency is math. And I once decided to be lazy and for a technical elective take the business version of a class I’d already taken the engineering version of. I didn’t expect the math to be at the same level, business bachelor’s don’t need stats 2 and calc 2, both of which came up in the engineering version. But when there were groans at finding a basic slope and arithmetic I knew I didn’t belong there. I should’ve taken circuits 2 instead, it would’ve at least not bored the hell out of me
Efficiency is math, but often it’s more than that depending on how it’s used. For example, I work in health care. We can apply lean principles and create a ton of efficiency on one aspect, but we will lose on others, like patient care, re-admissions, and quality. Math is correct, but it’s not everything. This is literally my job and I’m lean 6 sigma certified.
Also, for my business degree I took stats 2 and operational supply processing which was just stats 2 with application. So I’d say it depends on the school and degree. Didn’t need Calc 2, but I also took both a Calc with applied geometry and a business Calc. Business Calc was a joke.
I went to business school and was in classes with people from a bunch of different business majors.
Most people are book smart and can pass a test, but are otherwise stupid.
I also regularly meet different C-suite executives for work. Again, most are only good at one or two things. Efficiency isn’t one of them.
