I have about 5 years of experience working in sales for both product and service companies (startups and MNC). However, in the long run I don't want to be in sales. I want to eventually move into something where my work has some sort of impact. Can be: product management, business strategy, internal or client consulting or maybe something else which I'm not sure of. As I'm in the middle of taking a break currently to figure this out, I want to understand how I can transition into these roles without a master's degree? Is it practically possible? If yes, then how should I go about it?
I suggest you do short courses in AI and Business analytics and product management. There are many available as class room led or online. Upgrad, edx, Udemy is a good source for skill development at your own pace and time. Even otherwise you get many short term courses to upgrade your skills. Masters is not mandatory . You just need to hone the skills, be clear about what you want to do in your career and demonstrate your skills to the employer and move forward. Good luckm.
