Tyra Banks has always been fierce, but soon the model-TV personality-producer-author-entrepreneur can add another line to her résumé: Harvard Business School graduate. The media mogul explained why she enrolled in the school’s Owner/President Management Programme in an interview: “There’s a difference between a career and a business,” she explained. “I’m not looking to build a company based on fans.” Rather, she hopes to run a strategic operation that promotes her beliefs and simultaneously turns out a profit. She admitted that in her working life, she’s not as tough as she appears to be on ‘America’s Next Top Model’. And as the 38-year-old nears completion of her HBS education, she’s learned that success is “not about being the biggest, but being the best.”
