Hello I am looking for some suggestion,
Currently, I am a Network Architect with a PhD working in France. My objective for the next 5 years is to become a team manager (by the end of this period of-course). To that end, I want to obtain a Management Degree while working full time before the job search. I looked at Harvard Extension School managegement degree (HES ALM), le Cnam (MBA - hybrid mode), IAE Sorbonne Business School (international MBA). All these three options are interesting w.r.t cost and flexibility to complete along with my current activity. But only le Cnam MBA has AMBA accredition others are not accredited with internatinally known accredition. Since I will be changing my job within these 5 years i.e, outside of France (Germany and Gulf region), which degree in your opinion would better reflect my management studies and allow me to negotiate a competitive salary package ?
My guess : Since Harvard is internationally known, I think a degree from this university would put me in a better position for negotiation. But since its not an MBA, I am a bit sceptical, because some employers are so attracted towards these three letters.
Note :
+ In my current company, University ranking plays a role in salary offered.
+ Now, I am preparing myself for Project Management certification from PMI - Certified Associate + PRINCE2
+ I plan to pursue HBS Online Core Credentials to prepare for my management degree as I come from very scientific and data science background.
