Personal Statement: My Dream Career in Business and Management
Having accumulated nearly four years’ knowledge from my tertiary institution and more than eight years’ experience from my dad’s business/company in the business and economic field. I wanted to know more about Business and Management. This kindled my decision to come to the United Kingdom in 2019 to study for a master’s degree in Global Business at the University of Hertfordshire. The rigorous training acquired advanced knowledge and exposure that has improved my career prospect.
During the course of study, I got a passion to study more in-depth for an MBA degree. Due to knowledge acquired from my childhood being from a Business background family makes me want to seek more into what Business and management is more about. Due to the changes going on in business trends, this made me want to always seek more knowledge and deep understanding in order to use the acquired knowledge and ideas to impact positively to give the business a more competitive advantage with the other fellow competitors.
Also been directly involved in my dad’s business from 2012 to date. I work closely with him, the management team, and staff. I take charge of his position most especially in his absence and when asked to, representing him in meetings, seminars, and conferences. I have successfully taken charge of the business for a period of five months when he was away for his medical treatment in the year 2017. then I was successful to maintain the standard of the business through the experience I have gathered while working with him when he was around and the knowledge is gathered through me tertiary education days and experience gained while in a leadership position while in a tertiary institution. With the experience gathered over years have helped to be able to manage staff work under difficult situation and taking difficult task in a managerial role or in business.
Therefore, I realize that, in this stage of my career, I must develop my professional ability and I am willing to learn more effective and practical teaching and techniques to further my knowledge and advance my professional management skills.
