Sample Statement of Purpose for Global Business

Management

Name:
Course: Global Business Management Diploma
Institution: ……………………………………………………

I was born and brought up in a progressive business family. One thing I note
is that the atmosphere in such families is different compared to families
where parents are employed. We are taught to develop independent thought,
have an entrepreneurial sprit and be outgoing. In addition, we are taught to
look at the practical side of life and relationships. All these influenced me to
take on studies in computer applications with a future eye on possible launch
of my own IT based company for which I would also need to be an efficient
business manager. This is where I now stand. At this point I feel professional
business management training will be of immense benefit for my future
career goal.

My work as an administrative specialist in Citi Private Bank, a division of


CitiBank, saw me put to use my education in computer technology. It also
put me on unfamiliar territory of working in administration and interfacing
with people. I had to don different hats and fulfil responsibilities, mostly
managerial in nature and this set me thinking. I decided to study business
management to fill gaps in my knowledge and to chart out a progressive
future career. This program at the Loyalist College suits me since it covers all
the essential bases such as Business analytics, capture planning, Global
Accounting, Global Business, Supply chain, consumer behaviors, international
business law, leadership and project information, going by the course. I like
the method of learning, particularly project based learning with industry
partners to gain real world experience.

Why this university


Loyalist College became my institution of choice once I analysed the course
structure and method of learning. In addition, my research shows its faculty
commands respect and its diploma holds value in international job markets.
Its graduates are doing well in their career, which means they have the
education at Loyalist to thank. As to why this country, this is where Loyalist
College is located which is a happy coincidence. I like Canada’s welcoming
nature, its non-discriminatory approach and that it is home to a very diverse
cultural mix. Toronto is its business centre and I am sure I will get a chance
to do a project with a top multi-national company.

Experience
I completed my Masters of Computer Application in July 2019. In April 2019 I
applied for and obtained a position as Administrative Specialist at Citi Private
Bank. My job was part IT related in that I had to make use of custom
software tools to prepare statements, carry out surveillance, create client
profiles and conduct administrative tasks with the use of software. My other
job duties related to working as abettor to associate bankers to create client
profiles, assist clients, help bank colleagues, manage customer service and
maintain inventory. I do keep busy in this job and learn about management
as I go along.

Classes/projects
Apart from pursuing studies in computer applications, I undertook classes to
learn other computer software such as Adobe solutions, classes to learn
about 3Ds 3D modelling and animation, SQL and Oracle to learn about
database programming and HTML for web designing. I have obtained
certification in GNIIT from NIIT in June 2018, in Oracle 11G in September
2016 and in Adobe CS6 in April 2019. Further, while working, I joined the
Institute of Professional Banking to undergo the Post Graduate Certificate in
Retail Banking course which I passed in February 2019.

Leadership/community experience
While in school and then in college at Guru Nanak Dev University and then at
Amity University, I loved to take part in theatrical performances, in debates
and in Singing competitions. I formed a group and led them to take part in
such events.
The lockdown saw me working from home. It also affected me to note the
plight of so many labourers deprived of house, work and food. I organized
my friends to get together and ran a community kitchen for whoever we
could reach out to. It also made me realize just how fortunate I was and that
I also have a greater community responsibility.
I am vivacious, a bubbly and effervescent spirit. I get along well with people
and love interactions. I am sure that this quality will help me to be a better
manager, complementing my training in business management. I am
cheerful, enthusiastic to acquire knowledge and possess the Punjabi joi-de-
vivre. Hopefully, provided I gain admission, I should be able to share these
with my co-students. My hard work and future career progress will, I am sure,
enhance reputation of the college.

Career goals and how this course will help


At the moment I have plateaued in my job and further progress to more
challenging jobs is held up since I do not have necessary qualification and
skills. I would love to work in the international arena and serve as a manager
or assistant manager to start with before I become a regional business
development manager for a corporate house. This is my short term
aspiration. For the future, I would like to set up my own business in IT and
for me Gurugram is ideal since this is close to Delhi and it is a hub of
international IT operations. This course will give me the knowledge and skills
to be a capable manager and to run my global business in future.
