What it’s all leading up to
With all the challenges, newfound skills, connections, and successes you experience along the way, completing an MBA is a monumental occasion – one to be incredibly proud of.
Graduation Day marks the start of the rest of your career journey, one with a fresh new perspective, set of skills and confidence to achieve whatever your career goals may be… no matter how ambitious.
Within the first year of starting the MBA, I got my first promotion. Within a couple of years, I switched jobs again. Another promotion again, which was fantastic. And it’s given me the confidence to pursue other opportunities and really stretch myself.
The only thing I would change is doing it earlier. And that would be my advice to other students, start now. There is no reason to procrastinate. I think people by nature will always put something off and I would say to them, start today.
For whatever we were studying in class I could go implement it the next day. And now that I’m in Australia, I work for finance company, as an Implementation Manager. And that is all because of my MBA.
