Think about supply chain sustainability or masters in operations & supply chain management

I would take the MS in SCM route. It is broader and opens up more doors.

I just think that you can get to a director level without doubling down on supply chain with a masters. You can look into MS in business analytics, for instance.

Are you planning to proceed right away? I think it would be better to gain some experience first. But MS is a good option.

I agree with most of the comments. I think MS in SCM route is your best option. You'll have more job opportunities if you choose that path.

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.

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?
