We both got value out of my studies
My organisation sponsored me financially through the Warwick MBA and was supportive in terms of time off for study as well so it was important to me to ensure that we both got value out of my studies.
The dissertation provided me with a perfect opportunity to demonstrate the commercial worth of the Warwick MBA to my sponsor, especially when compared to the cost of an external consultant undertaking a similar study.
It highlighted opportunities within my own organisation to drive process improvements that had fairly wide-ranging implications for the business and I continue to implement a number of my dissertation recommendations today.
MBAs are becoming more prevalent, but often the only indicator of quality is the name of the school.
The Warwick MBA is all about challenging preconceived ideas about business and looking at familiar problems from new angles.
It's also about encouraging us to step out of our comfort zones to develop as more rounded managers.
The WBS brand is strong and well respected.
I now feel more confident in discussions with senior managers and the letters after my name are a subtle but powerful signal that I can contribute valuable input.
