Sponsored by

 

After a few years building a career, many professionals feel stuck. They have advanced in their position, but may be overlooked or unqualified for the next leap. This is the perfect time to pursue a masters degree. Completing an MBA program increases a person’s skillset and abilities and, as a result, their career value and potential skyrockets.

We checked in with two recent LSU Flores MBA grads to find out how they improved their career path when they found themselves at a crossroad.

Executive MBA students met with Benjamin Wong at Invest Hong Kong (InvestHK) to discuss business development opportunities in Hong Kong and the broader region.
“The Executive MBA track was a great fit for me. With a young family and demanding career, the schedule and tempo in which I could earn an advanced degree was perfect. Now, in my new position as president and general counsel of the Louisiana Mid-Continent Oil and Gas Association, I use what I learned in the Flores MBA program, which more than prepared me for this position. I’m very thankful for my experience in the Flores MBA program and would recommend it to anyone looking to advance their education or career.”
