Let me attempt to be a voice of reason.
The MBA degree provides you with you basic tools to navigate the corporate landscape. As someone with an IT focused career it exposed me to basic principles of other departments (accounting, marketing, etc.), other industries (pharmaceuticals, manufacturing, etc.) and tactics (strategy, negotiation, alliance creation, etc.).
There are many potential ways to explore all of these topics, but if you're looking to cover a lot of ground (with enough depth to ask intelligent questions) in a relatively short amount of time (2-3 years) I would recommend an MBA (if you don't already hold a business degree).
If you decide to take it a step further I would recommend a part-time program. As a working professional I personally could never justify giving up my income and the work experience. Besides you need a place to apply what you learn, otherwise why bother?
