Completing my MBA in Projects and Operations Management from York St John University through LUBM has been a major milestone in my professional journey. I chose this programme because I wanted to strengthen my leadership capability and gain a deeper, more structured understanding of how projects and operations work together to drive real business results.
Throughout the MBA, I developed a stronger foundation in planning, execution, and performance improvement. The programme helped me think more strategically about managing projects, improving operational efficiency, and making decisions based on structure and analysis rather than pressure and assumptions. I also gained valuable insight into managing teams, handling deadlines, controlling risks, and ensuring that day-to-day operations align with long-term goals.
Balancing work responsibilities alongside study was challenging at times, but it became achievable because of the flexibility of the programme and the support through LUBM. The guidance was clear, and I always felt informed about timelines, requirements, and next steps, which helped me stay consistent until completion.
I’m genuinely proud of completing this MBA because it wasn’t only about earning a degree. It upgraded the way I plan, lead, and deliver outcomes professionally. I would highly recommend the MBA in Projects and Operations Management to anyone who wants to grow into leadership roles, enhance their ability to manage projects and operations effectively, and earn a recognised UK qualification without putting their career on pause.
