  "account": "Eugene Kong's career trajectory shifted dramatically after enrolling in Taylor's University's Master of Business Administration (100% Online) programme, which allowed him to work full-time while pursuing his studies. Before the MBA, Kong's business approach was primarily marketing-focused, but the program broadened his perspective to include financial, operational, and stakeholder considerations. The case studies, client management, and decision-making challenges helped him transition from campaign execution to business strategy, planning, and long-term growth. Today, Kong's MBA has equipped him with the confidence and strategic mindset to launch his own creative production company, where he now approaches client relationships and business decisions with a holistic, strategic lens.",
