MBA graduates must have certain qualities that lead to climbing to management and leadership positions within the company. Here I explain the skills you must have to solve problems effectively and make the right decisions that favor your personal growth and that of the company.

Adaptation and organization

What do companies look for in an MBA graduate? Among other things, the ability to organize teams and tasks, but, above all, a high level of adaptability to change.

New work models require continuous learning and change is an opportunity. It is essential to learn to manage several projects at the same time and to prioritize tasks. It is necessary to listen, observe, have an open mind to face adversities and manage time correctly to increase productivity.

Technology, e-commerce and social networks

Technology has changed the way we do business. Even the smallest company today needs to stay updated and connected. By this I don’t mean being an expert in programming, but I do mean keeping up to date with advances in your industry.

Basic things like learning how to use applications designed to make innovative presentations, some design skills or a course in writing for the Internet are not going to be enough. If, in addition, you learn about issues such as cybersecurity or big data, so much the better.

I would like to point out that management and leadership skills in the online environment are in high demand by companies. Digital marketing, content management, social media communication and data analysis are areas that you must learn to master.

Business mission and vision

How to satisfy customer needs? There are many ways, but one of the most important is to know the company you work for. Ideally, you should be able to work in a company with which you share values, because companies are made up of people.

What is the work culture of the company you want to work for? Is it an international company that allows you to learn to develop intercultural skills? It seems like a basic question, but the truth is that having a mission and vision for your company and yourself as an employee will open many doors.
