• Is an MBA the only option to make the jump into the management suite?
• What about formal short-courses, online learning or just-in-time internet research?

• Does peer-coaching provide lasting value?
• Or is maybe job-hopping to break through a glass ceiling a viable alternative?
• How should I plan and map out my next steps?
