One of the best reasons for learning is to grow personally and to better oneself in a variety of capacities. Pursuing an MBA enabled me to think more abstractly and to interact with like-minded individuals from various industries and sectors, broadening my perspective and attitude toward life. The world is rapidly changing, and so is the future of employment. Even if I am highly qualified and educated, the industry and technology will continue to evolve, necessitating ongoing adaptability. The answer to this situation is self-improvement and critical thinking. Through continual learning, I can improve my skills to keep up with industry developments and progress in my career.
The MBA provided advanced knowledge in management strategy and analysis, with a focus on fundamental areas such as marketing, operations, and finance, as well as specialized issues such as sustainable business and innovation. However, an MBA provides much more: it is a transforming experience both professionally and personally. Studying for an MBA was a significant project that demanded a great deal of discipline and time.
This is the second time I’ve studied at Westford, first for my MBA and now for the DBA. Lecturers, probably oddly to some, have contributed significantly to my fondest memories at Westford. Most academics will conclude the term with some “life lessons,” and many of these sessions stick with me because of the teachers’ genuine life counsel.
One of the most difficult aspects of studying for my MBA was staying on track without overwhelming myself with too many assignments. It was tough and impractical to expect to complete everything on the agenda at first. I had to prioritize my activities and organize them around the assignment deadlines and exam dates. I prioritize projects that are due soon while providing enough time to accomplish other activities to minimize last-minute stress or even missing deadlines.
Nothing is the same after an MBA. Because such a demanding curriculum necessitates good time management, prioritizing, and people skills, I approach challenges from a different viewpoint and bring a stronger feeling of self-confidence to the table. In the employment landscape, I have become more competitive. I believe the MBA is a means to a goal, not the destination in itself. Even with the credentials, I still have a lot of work to do to be competitive in the market, which is why I began the DBA with Westford.
