Sponsored study: Eaton Corporation's story
Mike undertaking the Warwick MBA was an investment in our company and our competitive viability.
We recognised that how well we do as a company is largely determined by the effectiveness of our managers.
Through the new skills Mike has acquired we have improved our competitive advantage by having a Director who has a more structured
approach to doing business, a broader horizon, the skills and knowledge necessary to manage growth and change,
and the capability to successfully face global competitive challenges.
Vice President & General Manager, Eaton Corporation
The company benefited because it allowed me to mix with people from different industries and develop a much broader outlook.
Whilst working towards the Warwick MBA I was able to take a step back from my organisation and look in from the outside.
Through studying alongside colleagues from around the world, I learned so much more about other cultures and business practices.
The programme enabled me to gain a greater insight into the specifics of different functions within the company that I had limited previous experience of.
Being given the opportunity to study other business management techniques and compare them to our practices will hopefully offer future payback.
