Does anyone here without an MBA/MHA feel stuck in their current role? I have 8+ years of experience in consulting but recently moved to industry and am feeling a little stuck in terms of career mobility.

Does it really matter at this point?

Yeah it does. I'm not at senior management level and am not at the ideal comp that I would like To be at.

What is your role in industry ? Company ?

Manager for a hp

What would be your next role if given the opportunity?

Performance improvement, operations, or implementation role at a big / health tech company

MBAs don’t teach much but make a huge comp dif… maybe see if your company will sponsor a part time program with a guaranteed promo after?
