Introspection
My aspiration to do an MBA stems from a desire to do what I am capable of doing and want to do.
So is MBA a way to escape my present profession? Certainly not. It is a medium for me to advance my career in the same Business.
How do I think an MBA will help my career aspirations? I am certain that an MBA will move me from a position where I do micro level work to a place where I do macro level work and make a direct contribution to the growth of a successful enterprise.
Why abroad and not in our very own motherland? To have international exposure and the diversity which it mandates would make it an unique learning experience. Also the case study based curriculum would make me taste the kind of challenges a leader faces.
Does this mean my Technical Masters is a waste? Not at all. It is my masters that has got me here. And it is because of this education I am in a position to envision and understand technology faster. But for me to move further and break the traditional growth within an organization I would need an exposure which would give me an all round and better exposure to how businesses are managed.
Why is 2008 the right time for me to start my MBA? Simply because I believe I am ready to toil and learn with the organizational experience, which I believe is optimum. Optimum because I don’t know too much to unlearn deeply and I know enough to relate to significant number of situation in case studies.
So what next? First things first. GMAT. I didn’t succeed the first time around. Because I put the quantitative effort but not the qualitative effort. It’s like a marathon training needs 750km of training for over 15 weeks and you train 750km nonetheless but in 5 weeks. So you cannot run the marathon with your best speed and time. Similarly GMAT is an effort over a duration of time not a consolidated effort.
So wish me luck!
