Curtis J. Maggard, Research Solution Consultant, Elsevier says:
"My initial reaction to getting an MBA was 'it's just a piece of paper.' I wanted to just have the title and career advancement possibilities that come with it. I couldn't have been more wrong. I've learned a lot of highly valuable information. I recently designed, launched, and brought a small product to market. Getting my MBA has given me a very clear picture of how a corporation is run and the confidence on how to navigate it."
