Overview
Anthony Widdop
General MBA
I worked as an IT Manager before deciding to study for my MBA at Nottingham, which I chose to enhance my understanding of business at management level. My intention was for a strategic change in career direction with the MBA as the vehicle to create new opportunities.
The course is an intensive and richly rewarding programme. Working in small teams to regular deadlines enhanced my communication and team working skills. It also taught me how to manage regular and sometimes conflicting obligations. Teams were international with members coming from diverse backgrounds and work experience.
The MBA has given me the confidence to apply a wide range of business skills in future roles. Particularly useful were in class group exercises requiring quick thinking about real life business case studies. Afterwards we were often required to present our findings to the class, an experience that greatly enhanced my presentation skills.
My year at Nottingham culminated in a management project investigating the potential to implement an alternative pricing model in UK law firms. The project allowed me to demonstrate many of the skills that I had learned on the course. The MBA was a challenging, but immensely enjoyable experience. I would thoroughly recommend it.
