Questions

What are your career aspirations after completing the course?

Upon completing my MBA, my goal is to transition into a senior leadership position, ideally as a General Manager, focusing on strategic management and international business development. With my background in sales, supply chain, and financial management, I aim to leverage the skills gained through the MBA to drive global business expansion, particularly in North American and European markets. I aspire to lead cross-functional teams, innovate in operational strategies, and contribute to the long-term success of a multinational corporation, focusing on sustainable growth and enhanced profitability in a dynamic global economy.

Why did you choose to do an MBA?

I decided to pursue an MBA to enhance further my leadership and strategic thinking skills, which are critical for advancing in senior management roles. While my experience in sales management, supply chain operations, and financial optimization has provided a strong foundation, I recognize the need to deepen my understanding of global business practices, finance, and advanced management techniques. An MBA from the University of Birmingham will equip me with the tools and knowledge to navigate complex business challenges, broaden my global perspective, and ultimately position me for higher executive responsibilities in international markets.
