Look at your leadership team? Is there someone who stands out? Someone you identify with or admire? Start there and set up an informational interview learn about them and then eventually ask for 30 mins of their tine each month for career guidance. They may say no, then move on. If they say yes, don’t waste their tine about your trivial issues, talk strictly business and career development - they are not your replacement parent, priest, guru, rainmakers, or therapists —they are people who will hand you corporate shortcuts and later champion you if you show them you have have talent and drive.

I have been looking at the curriculums for Harvard Business School's Master of Business Administration and Harvard Extension School's Master's in Management. They both have the same requirements, generally speaking, including a field immersion course that serves as a capstone in the Master's in Management, which is fairly new. If I am not able to gain admission to Harvard Business School, but wanted a similar educational experience to become a consultant, should I attend Harvard Extension?
