I took the questionnaire and felt that I needed to feed back to you a serious assumption in the questions that your female respondents are straight! Some of the questions could skew your data because they do not apply to women who do not see men as a reason for competitiveness in relation to sexual attraction.

Good luck with the study though.

HI Nikos -

I think your specialisation sounds interesting - but I would just caution you to remember that the MA would be much more expensive than your first one, if you are thinking of doing it in the UK again!
You might consider thinking about doing the specialist training in South Africa, for example, where there would be practical applications of the learning.

However, if you currently have a job, I would just ask why you feel more training is necessary? Don't make the assumption that you need to 'know more' just because business might be slow - we are in a recession and Greece might not be doing such quick business now but hopefully that will change. (I'm half Greek).

It doesn't matter when you want to do further qualifications - so your age is not the issue it is about separating out a shitty economic climate from the issue of whether you have enough expertise to do the job you want to do. (PS: You might be able to organise a fellowship or a training programme in African markets rather than learn theories about African markets, if your work is about clients at all).
