I would really like to increase my earnings potential by obtaining an MBA. However, as my topic alludes, the only real employment I've had has been w/ USAF (6 yrs- 3 Germany, 1 Saudi Arabia).
I have had a myriad of responsiblities including custodian of 3.5 mil in gov assets and have directly supervised up to 3 individuals at one time. While working with daily challenges (wartime simulations, arms training, etc.), I was also involved in off and on-duty leadership positions such as Founder/Director of a church youth organization and President of Squadron and Unit advisory councils. I was awarded two achievement medals & one accomendation (great for 6 years in)for my work overseas.
I consider myself to be a mover and shaker. I enjoy change and consider myself as quite flexible. After all, I did leave the mil to attend school full time in hopes of advancing in a new world. I am also pretty stable, I have been married (to the same person!) for seven years, am involved in civic organizations and I carry a 3.3 GPA majoring in Information Systems.
So, should I go for an MBA? The school I'm considering has a f/t schedule that begins two months after I graduate.
Thanks
