Im a IT manager in a pharmaceutical company. In summary I’m the Salesforce technical product manager for our internal client. Which specializations, MBA or courses would make me more relevant to the tech industry, considering I’m not the actual developer (although I work with Salesforce for 8 years and I manage a team of outsourced consultants that do the technical development)?

Would love to talk with you on DMs if you have any experience similar to this.
