Any of the top schools will be a good fit for you in terms of your short term and long term career goals. You should research the schools a bit to see what ones are a good fit with your personality and what you are looking for in terms of the business school experience/culture.
Given your goals of strategy consulting and then operational experience, an MBA is a good fit for you. I think you can explain that you want to gain the general management skills offered by an MBA program to help you become a strong manager and leader. These are different from the Econ and Finance curriculums you have experienced in the past.
