"John Carroll’s MBA program helped to build me into the professional I am today. I appreciate the way classes blended multiple disciplines, helping our classrooms mirror the complexity of the non-theoretical world. I increased my work capacity and speed. I became a better manager and leader. I became a stronger communicator and presenter. I became a more strategic thinker. My career skyrocketed after completing JCU’s MBA program."
