Hello there,
I am toying with the idea of doing an MBA. Part-time, while I'm (hopefully) working. Open University, in fact.
I reckon I have the energy to do it, no kids yet etc, so it's probably a good time.
Does anyone have views on whether if it really pays off ?
My motivation is that I guess the day will come when I have trouble getting contracts, I will want other options ready. Like look for permanent jobs.
And then (being that bit older) I would need to be a manager of some kind, because purely technical permanent jobs have that salary ceiling. If I would be stuck on a purely technical track, I could be competing with spotty kids for VB jobs. I am under the impression that the more seniors guys from a technical track are using business skills.
any thoughts ?
