Corp Strat at large telecom after 1YOE Management Development. What now? Does MBA even make sense?

Not too sure what I would want next. Perhaps some CorpDev working together experience or transition to PE. Maybe MBA? Honestly feeling lost getting to this step this early w.o consulting or mba. Graduated from top liberal arts so MBA is not really a must for me. Company does not emphasize inorganic growth so it doesn't make sense to fully switch from CS to CD either.
