Consultant answer: it depends on a quite a few factors.

First where do you stand in your career? As in in which field and position?
Then where do you want to be in a few years? What would the MBA contribute to?

Assuming you are working as a manager in a big4 and aim for Partner, an MBA would not necessarily make you progress faster (lookup Partner experience on LinkedIn).
Some other actions would potentially better optimise your progress.

If your goal is to pivot to IB or strategy consulting then maybe an MBA is worth it.

Happy to discuss it further as I was also wondering.

Indeed, for partner, an MBA won’t make much of a difference. But long term, C suite industry might appreciate an MBA more.

MBA from where?

well yeah. depends where you get your MBA from. but also depends where you are in your career and what value you think the MBA will add since they are pricey. INSEAD is definitely a very good option. I went to Vlerick in Belgium (for masters, not MBA) and it was a really good choice but while it's very well known in the Benelux, it's not that good when compared to hec paris etc

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?

I am currently working on my MBA in a professional evening and weekend program at a highly accredited university. I am thinking about transferring to a much smaller private online program, specifically because they offer a concentration in organizational health, which directly builds on my doctoral research. Does great depth and specialization outweigh the value of a highly respected generalist degree?
