Why I wish to study for the Strathclyde MBA Program

One of the most important aspects in a person 's life should be the desire and the appreciation of studying and learning throughout a lifetime . In today 's advanced technological society this long-term view of studying and increasing personal and business skills is doubly important because the tools that we use as a society to communicate collate and transform data into information , and generally present ourselves in the business sector at least , are continually changing and the successful businessman is one that

It was this desire to further my learning in the business field that helped me complete a Bachelors of Commerce at Mumbai University in India . I then went on to complete post-graduate studies with the University of California Irvine-Extension , U .S .A in global operations management and business administration .

It is my belief that the successful manager of the future will have a solid grasp of theories linked to global management and marketing . This person will be articulate in more than one language , understand the importance of cultural diversity and apply these theories to a successful work environment . It is my desire to have those skills and to be a successful manager in the future . India is fast building a reputation in the global marketplace , especially in IT , graphic and other media based fields , and it is my intention when I have completed my studies to return to...
