I'm more of an introvert and hate being"on" all the time. I just want to research and gather information to create the required content and do my work in in peace. I hate all the constant group meetings so much!

Are you open to Biz Ops / Analytics roles in Tech?

1) does MBA actually improve someone's chance in getting those roles?
2) are there any good Canadian MBA programs you'd recommend?

Thank you all!
