Product Information

MBA-программах, могу быть не объективен... Но во-первых, "пусть цветёт 1000 цветов" :) ; во-вторых, у программ MBA есть и сильные стороны, которые автор игнорирует; в-третьих, сами программы MBA очень разные - и они тоже меняются по форме и содержанию, чтобы идти в ногу со временем/. I read The Personal MBA cover to cover when it was first released and it had a major impact on how I view business. It’s incredible how Josh was able to distill hundreds of books and hundreds of years of business knowledge into this succinct and elegant tome." ROB WALLING, co-founder of MicroConf and bestselling author of Start Small, Stay Small With a little time and effort, you can easily learn these skills on your own, without eye-popping tuition and student loans. This week I Just finished reading this great book called The Personal MBA written by Josh Kaufman, where the author explores the pros and cons of investing in an MBA course since even elite schools like Wharton and Harvard offer outdated programs that teach more about Power Point Presentations and unnecessary financial models than about what it takes to run a real business. The first part of the book is all dedicated to this discussion. I thought it was very interesting and an eye opener, since I was thinking in enrolling in an MBA program when I finish my course. Methods to Increase There are only four ways a business can bring in more money. Do you know what they are?

An MBA degree program isn’t one-size-fits-all. Consider your lifestyle, career goals, and current employment situation to decide which program is right for you. Here’s a look at some common types of MBA degrees: Prior to developing the Personal MBA full-time, Josh worked as an Assistant Brand Manager in Procter & Gamble's Home Care division, where he was responsible for projects that encompassed P&G's entire value chain, from creating new products to working with large customers like Wal-Mart, Target, Costco, and Kroger. Before leaving P&G, Josh spearheaded the development of P&G's global online marketing measurement strategy. Online MBA programs through accredited universities, like the iMBA from University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, offer access to the same professors and learning materials as on-campus programs with the added benefit of a flexible schedule. You can learn from virtually anywhere on a desktop or mobile device—no need to quit your job or relocate to attend a highly ranked business school. You may have spread before you the wisdom of the ages, but unless you assimilate it you derive no benefit from it; no one can force it into your cranium.

My well-worn copy of The Personal MBA has been sitting within arm’s reach by my desk for the better part of the past decade. Since starting and growing my own business, this book has been my go-to manual for insights, clarity, and wisdom that I never learned in school.” Research suggests it takes 10,000 hours to develop a new skill to mastery. In this nonstop world, who has that kind of time? Josh Kaufman Explains The '12 Standard Forms of Value' Questions About The '12 Standard Forms of Value' MBA graduates can work across a variety of industries, though a 2023 Graduate Management Admission Council (GMAC) survey of corporate recruiters found that there is high demand for MBA graduates in the energy, consulting, products and services, and manufacturing industries [ 1].

If you choose to pursue an on-campus MBA, you’ll typically attend classes in person on a fixed schedule. These traditional MBA programs often attract candidates who want to take advantage of the facilities, extracurricular activities, and overall community of a university campus.

However, I plan to get my MBA and still found parts of the book helpful for a general idea of things to know.The Iron Law of the Market: Why every business is limited by the size and quality of the market it attempts to serve – and how to find hungry markets just waiting to be served... Josh collected in one tome so much information that it would’ve taken me years reading books on variety of different topics to map everything he mentioned here. I just finished my third listen of the Personal MBA and still enjoy it alot. In short, it is a great high level summary of many important topics in both business and personal development. I does not go into detail about each topic, but gives you a primer on the most important elements. The book is focused around the mindset of entrepreneurs and teaches you the «first principles of business thinking». You come into this world alone. You go to the grave alone. You are alone with your inner thoughts during the journey between.
