Would love to hear about your gardening leave experience, especially in the event production sector, i.e. Gartner, Forrester, etc. I’m planning my resignation and I’m unsure if I should plan my next endeavor around it. I plan to continue my career in event production but as an in-house producer for a solution provider, any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Is an MBA really worth it for a career pivot?
New to Fishbowl?

Personally I don't feel that an MBA is an appropriate way to climb the ranks in this case. As a fellow software dev, it's like a scapegoat.
You move up the hierarchy by proving yourself, asking for more work, going above and beyond. If you've already done so and haven't moved up in 7 years, it's time to move on to another group.
As an engineer, the fastest way up the chain is thru experience and projects. Unless you're at a firm that literally says you have to have an MBA to get the next position, there's no point.
You need to reflect on your experience. Why haven't you gotten a promotion? You have to be honest with yourself. Maybe it's even politics at play, who knows. Getting an MBA won't get rid of politics.
It’s not thatt I haven’t moved up at all but yeah am not a VP or a partner yet, curious about executive MBA to upskill
