I am thinking of going into business and would like to get an MBA. I have 8 years of experience writing software professionally and a background in CS. My goal is to learn about business, running them, scaling them, raising money, etc.
Will getting an MBA help me achieve this goal?
It depends on your college and alumni. Go for a college where students come from across the globe.
Also moving from a tech role to management and business needs a different mindset. So be prepared for the roller coaster.
If you are a networking kind of person - you will enjoy.
