I recently completed my MBA at North Georgia and am very happy that I decided to pursue and complete my degree. I had contemplated for years about going back to school and finally made the decision in early 2008 (New Year’s Resolution) to get serious and start the process. The NGCSU Team MBA program in Cumming was the perfect fit to make this happen, primarily due to the location, cost, logistics and, most importantly, the team concept.
There were many things that made this program a success for me. First, the week night classes were preferred over spending my weekend days in class. We did have some weekend work but the weekly schedules allowed for me to balance my work and personal life during the program. Second, the team concept provided the opportunity to work with a group during the entire program. Groups were assigned based on each of our strengths, weaknesses and personalities so we all had the opportunity to blend these differences into a successful and productive team as the program progressed. In addition, the curriculum was balanced with all aspects of business and provided an emphasis on the global market. For me personally, this was very important as I aspire to run a company someday and needed to have a solid base in accounting, finance, operations, leadership, economics and marketing as well as a perspective of all from the global view.
This experience was very rewarding for me and has helped me to move into a leadership role with a new company. This role will allow for me to participate in the senior leadership of the company and could lead to more responsibilities in the future. The experiences and education that I completed in the Team MBA program were a large part of this new opportunity and will help me to be successful in my new role at this new company.
