Clarendon,
Are you considering advancing your academic record with an MBA? As the global economical market changes, more and more people are focusing on career development with an MBA.  Local and international press are reporting daily about the increase in MBA applications and how professionals are leaving the work-place to focus on their academia.  Professionals and current students alike recognise these global changes and are taking positive steps to reposition themselves for when the economy returns to its prosperous times, making them the appealing candidate.  Why study an MBA? An MBA is an international qualification that is well respected by employers around the world.  An MBA offers skills not ordinarily mastered on the job, such as financial, statistical, and managerial economics. It shows how different functions operate and are related, how companies in different industries compete, and how they manage in various environments. The MBA is the most popular internationally recognised postgraduate degree in the world. There are now around 2 500 MBA programs from more than 1 300 universities and management colleges in 126 countries worldwide. Employers see potential employees who have completed this qualification, allied to relevant experience and proven organisational achievements, as possessing flexibility, the ability to welcome rather than resist change, creativity, self-motivation, and personal effectiveness. These and other qualities are required in the organisational environments to which the employers are recruiting. MBA students can look forward to a considerable salary increase once they have graduated.  In fact, our latest salary survey shows that average starting salaries for MBA graduates have risen by 72%. The other benefits of completing an MBA include, amongst others: confidence and familiarity with economic concepts; the ability to be constructively critical of consultants purveying solutions to management problems; to be able to use management tools and techniques; to communicate clearly; and to analyse problems thoroughly before suggesting solutions. Understanding the basic functions in an organisation and the main features in the environment that impact upon it is vital for effective strategic management. Exposure to the latest management theories will always be an asset.  Other unanticipated benefits are improved time management skills, a network of contacts built up during the course of their MBA studies, and increased motivation at work as things start to make sense. Above all, the learning and thinking habits developed during MBA studies will ensure that, even long after graduating, those with MBAs will be outperforming those without MBAs. An MBA offers managers career and personal benefits that are likely to outweigh any financial and personal investment. The London School of Business and Management are undergoing exciting changes as it sees demand grow, not just for the MBA, but for all its undergraduate, postgraduate and professional qualifications.  Our courses are designed by professionals to reflect current trends in the market. Our teachers are acclaimed professionals with industry and teaching experience.  If you would like to know more about MBA’s at the London School of Business and Management, please contact us:  Kevin Dunn----------------------------------------Academic ConsultantLondon School of Business and Management Central House14 Upper Woburn PlaceLondon, WC1H 0NNEngland United Kingdom +44 (0) 20 7388 88 77+44(0) 20 7388 88 78kdunn@lsbm.org.ukwww.lsbm.org.ukkdunn.lsbm@gmail.com  "Now available on chat!"
