Obtaining A Doctoral Degree For Business Administration

I am now looking for an opportunity to further my personal development and career progression by enrolling with a reputable university on a business management degree course. I want to learn more about the nature, power and limitations of various business techniques; how management can influence a business' performance; how business and other types of organisations can help society to function and address society's problems. I very much hope

From football, I learned that no matter where you come from, everyone has something to contribute and it’s important to learn from others. As a sociology student, I learned to be aware of my biases and to understand how socialization in different environments creates different perspectives of life. In my career with Express Oil Change I learned a purpose for my future. I have an interest in organizational communication and feel my work experience and background in sociology would make me a great candidate for this program. Through its diverse student body and the strong research community, I believe that the Masters of Business Administration program at the University of Georgia would help to expand my business knowledge and gain important perspective to further my career. I would consider myself lucky to be a part of a program with such

My ultimate goal for using this degree is to make myself more valuable to my agency. To show my agency I am willing to do what needs to be done for promotions by gaining more education. I believe I will be more marketable to other agencies looking to hire new leaders. The more education

Although the many roles of a business professor are difficult to determine, Mercer University’s mission statement provides a surprisingly thorough account of these roles. The mission statement, “to teach, to learn, to create, to discover, to inspire, to empower and to serve,” may not seem like a description of the roles, but one would struggle fruitlessly to think of a great business professor who did not fulfill these roles. The importance of these roles is undeniable, however, among these roles, learning is especially important and is also the most appealing to me. This appeal is due not only because learning is the precursor for other roles, but also because of my personal adoration of learning.

When I first began this journey of obtaining my degree I had the goal in mind to continue my education until I receive my Doctoral Degree. By obtaining my Doctoral Degree in Business Administration I can make a difference in people’ lives by sharing the knowledge I have gain through my educational studies and work related experiences. As a student of Saint Leo University I have been able to apply the University’s six core values of Excellence, Community, Respect, Personal Development, Responsible Stewardship, and Integrity to my life experiences. I volunteer at numerous community events, such as the city of Newport News annual South East Community Day, Family Redirection Institute’s C4 annual week long Community Event, and Portsmouth Redevelopment and Housing Authority Community Day Events, that are geared to bring together and empowering the community. Through applying these core values to my lifestyle I have gained more insight and experienced more fulfillment with the achievements I have accomplished. By obtaining my Doctoral Degree I will have the opportunity to expand my knowledge and gain a better perceptive for the corporate environment, community and

It might seem strange to have my undergraduate degree in Counseling Psychology while applying to Graduate Program in Business Administration, but it has given me an incredible foundation for understanding coworkers and leading subordinates.

It is not surprising the competencies of the profession and prioritization of these competencies is ever shifting as well. Herdlein, Riefler, and Mrowka found in their meta- analysis of the subject a “shift in emphasis from counseling and human facilitation towards assessment, management, leadership, and supervision” as well as an emergence of “administrative functions such as strategic planning, budgeting/finance, legal/ethical issues, and campus organization and structure” (2013, p. 264). This is not surprising, as higher education institutions face decreased funding and increased regulations, this trickles down to a shift in priorities from human facilitation toward administrative management. The evolving world of higher education means student affairs leaders not only need to be educators but also have knowledge of business

My purpose for attending college again is to enhance my opportunities within the field of education. I have been teaching high school level social science courses for over a decade, and I am ready to advance into administration. Having already attained the administrator endorsement on my teaching license, I believe it would be beneficial to have a degree in Business Administration to stand out in a pool of candidates. Running a school is not greatly dissimilar from running a business. If this helps me with my career goals, I will consider it to have been time well

These days, people understand the value of college. Without a college degree, people will have to work harder to earn more money. However, the challenge many people face is determining what degree to pursue. Many people choose to go to college for a business degree, but are business degrees in Las Vegas worth the time and money investment?

To achieve my goal of being the Business/Divisional Manager, I need to have an MBA degree which is one thing that I have already started and will surely be completing successfully within three years’ time i.e. end 2015. And I am already having the management experience of 6 years now. With 4 years of experience as a Head of the department, and that too with reputable aviation firm in South Africa.

After attaining a degree in business studies, my career options will grow. Within the next five years, I can see two attractive options available:

At the Introduction to PD workshop I identified two broad reasons why I decided to pursue my MBA. The first was to develop my competence as a manager. The second and more important reason was to advance my career by making myself more marketable. The job market today is undoubtedly very competitive and I realised that a first degree was not sufficient if I wanted to 'climb the corporate ladder'. It is hoped that this MBA would help me to take advantage of any future opportunities when they become available. My personal development journey thus far has quite

Enrolling in the Doctor of Business Administration (DBA) through the Columbia Southern University (CSU) is individual fulfillment. To undertake doctoral studies, I must be self-directed, motivated, and highly disciplined because I hold ultimate responsibility for my success. This reflection assignment exercise proves to be the catalyst for my future college endeavors. The assignment to reflect on the DBA program dreams of taking steps towards realizing those ideas and course accomplishments right now. Due to time some course assignments, I will embrace, and others will become challenging.

Business administration is an extremely versatile degree to major in. The possibilities are nearly endless when it comes to possible career paths after graduation. Every business needs some form of management to operate successfully and efficiently. That is where a business administration graduate becomes useful. A person with a business administration degree typically works in the upper levels of management in order to make sure the business is running at full capacity. Positions filled by business administration graduates include, but are not limited to: chief information officers (CIOs), chief operating officers (COOs), chief sustainability officers (CSOs), and chief financial officers (CFOs). All of these possible jobs have one thing in common: chief. The chief is the person at the top who sees the big picture and delegates tasks that make that big picture come into focus. Among all of the possible careers accessible with a business administration degree, chief financial officer (from here on, known as CFO) appears to be a solid, long lasting, and satisfying choice.

During my sophomore year in high school, I made up my mind, I wanted to study business. My uncle owns his own business, he took me to work with him one day ever since then I have been in love with the concept of being your own boss. Although I didn’t really understood at the time what the job required or was about. The environment felt so natural and positive. As I got older and started looking more into it really felt like something suited for me that is why I choose this career. My major is Business Management and my dream job is to become a Management Analyst. A bachelor degree is needed for entry level job as a management analyst, however most employers prefer to hire management analyst who has a Master’s Degree in Business Administration (MBA). Psychology is one of the required courses needed to get a business management, the others are Accounting, Intro Contemporary Business, business law, principles of marketing, public speaking, Principles of Sociology, Intro to Computer
