London business school MBA or Yale Masters in environmental management?? I know they are different but Yales program is 50% from their business school. I’m in clean tech. Please share your opinions here

What are you looking to get out of the program? For the most part they lead to different outcomes.

The MBA will broaden your career opportunities in a way that the MEM can’t. Also, zero people looking at your resume in X years will know or care that 50% of your courses were with Yale SOM, and to most, an MBA is really not about the course load.

Do you want to learn the textbook skills to manage environmentally-focused businesses? MEM sounds great. Do you want to build a network of international business leaders and open doors outside of clean tech (e.g. consulting, banking with the intent of returning after building your business fundamentals)? Do an MBA.

This bowl is obviously MBA-centric, so I would say do the MBA. In my mind, it’s almost always better to get the broader degree and focus your efforts rather than get a super focused degree. MBAs can still get jobs in clean tech, probably just as easily as MEMs.

Does anyone still have the Verizon grandfathered unlimited phone plan?

If you had it and switched to a cheaper plan, do you regret switching? My mom was offered a 55+ unlimited plan open only to Florida residents, but I saw reports online that people had trouble with throttling.

When would be the right time for me to get an MBA given my background?

I was a teacher for 4 years and transitioned into the corporate world. I have 6 months experience in marketing and that’s what I currently do, but plan for a lateral move in the future. I’ve seen suggestions of 3-7 years experience - does my teaching experience factor in? Or should I consider the 3-7 years only of my corporate time? Or is an MBA sooner a good move because of my big career transition (and future lateral)?

My colleagues
Just to put some intro
I am 22 years after college experience and worked in consulting for 15 years and currently in industry for 7 years.
My long term goal is to go back to consulting more of a business advisor from a strategy perspective
Here is my question
Would MBA be any good for me especially looking at strategy side?
I don’t want to spend $200K and would probably go online MBA in a mid tier school. Are those any good?
Looking forward to your great input on this topic
