Hi Mike,

That's interesting you brought up MS Education in Leadership and Management as that should be for teachers or administrative personnel at an educational institution, such as a principal. I don't think this is as beneficial as an MBA especially if you are in Banking or in the Bank/Financial sector, when you are wanting to move up that chain.

What was your undergrad major and do you have interest in teaching or training others? The only reason I can think of to take that over the MBA is if your undergrad was in Education or if you want to go into corporate training at your workplace.
But that route won't bring you up to branch manager, it'll be something like corporate training advisor.

It's not an MS in Education Management and Leadership. It's an MS in Management and Leadership taught out of the business school. I, honestly, don't see the purpose of these degrees. You're essentially being taught organizational behavior over and over again from different angles.
