Securing company sponsorship may feel intimidating, but with ample preparation and a well-thought-out plan, you may be pleasantly surprised by your company’s response. There are many reasons why a company might want to finance your MBA. You know your company best; it is up to you to convince them why financing your degree is worth their investment.
