Lots of information here but it was a little too much for me. Not written as easily as I need to comprehend it alkl.
If you knew me, you would know how much I read. My books selection is predominantly business books as I read them for pleasure (people are different and can enjoy different things). My first ever choice are the business books with practical advice rather than theory that you can potentially put into practice.
“The 30 Day MBA: Your Fast Track Guide to Business Success” (5th Edition) by Colin Barrow attracted by attention. The contents are just perfect for the day-to-day reference. Of course, if you are looking to get MBA done, this book can be a great start similar to a book can be a great mentor or give some starting advice. Connecting to people through MBA or getting in person advice from a mentor is a lot different and not comparable.
Coming back to the book. The books is ideal for anyone starting MBA, already graduated from MBA or DBA because it contains the information to refer to. When we learn something and then do not use for a while, things get forgotten and I found (personally for me) the book as a very useful reference with short and smart explanations to the main MBA concepts. The book covers he 12 core disciplines of business: accounting, finance, marketing, organizational behavior, business history, business law, economics, entrepreneurship, ethics and social responsibility, operations management, research and analysis and strategy. The explanations are simple and straightforward, and each time followed by example. Absolutely great business cases added to cover the concepts in real practice.
I can definitely recommend this book as a table book to refer too and refresh the concepts you have learnt. Many thanks to the author for keep it short, smart, with plenty of examples and to the point.
