Product Description

Product Description

The 10-Day MBA is an essential business reference, summarising a top business school education in one easy-to-read volume. Steven Silbiger devotes a concise chapter to each discipline you will encounter on an MBA course - Marketing, Ethics, Accounting, Organisational Behaviour, Quantitative Analysis, Finance, Operations, Economics, and Strategy. On Day 10 the author gives a series of MBA mini courses on research, public speaking, negotiating, international business, and more. Significantly revised and updated, this third edition of Steven Silbiger's bestselling book has the latest facts, figures and trends, as well as new material on ethics in business post-Enron and personal finance. All-new mini-courses in property investment, business writing, leadership coaching, and financial planning have also been added. Prospective MBAs can use The 10-Day MBA to decide if they want to pursue a degree; those about to enter business school can use it to get a BIG head start on the competition; and those without the time and money can get the equivalent of an MBA education at 99 per cent off the list price.


About the Author

Steven Silbiger graduated at the Darden Graduate School of Business at the University of Virginia. He has worked as a CPA for Arthur Anderson & Co, as a leverage buyout analyst for an international trading company, and as a marketing strategy manager for National Media Corporation.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good way to 'bluff' your way through the MBA!, 16 Jul 2003
By R. Wong "rosieonvacation" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The 10-day MBA: A Step-by-step Guide to Mastering the Skills Taught in Top Business Schools (Paperback)
I found the short summaries very useful, when studying for my first term MBA exams! The basics of marketing, strategy, operations mgt etc... they're all concise and easy to understand. Frankly, I found it much easier to understand than my lecturer's notes!

5.0 out of 5 stars Top tips from a US perspective - applicable to UK MBA?, 14 Sep 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: The Ten-day MBA: A Step-by-step Guide to Mastering the Skills Taught in America's Top Business Schools (Paperback)
I have had the 1994 edition for years. Read it and read it again.
The author comes at it from a US business school perspective, and some of the content - and a lot of the terminology - is US based.

But I am doing a UK MBA and many of the key models and theorems are as applicable in "American" as they are in English.

If you are doing an MBA, or thinking about doing an MBA - or even just want to know more about how business operates, buy this book.

4.0 out of 5 stars -, 21 April 2006
By Calacorm (Manchester, UK) - See all my reviews
I'll agree with K Bert to a point. However I started my MBA on the Open University a few months ago and read this book a few months before and actually found it a nice introduction.

Granted it can't cover every topic in massive detail, but what it does give you is a nice framework for (what I assume to be from what I've studied so far) an entire MBA, granted possibly one in the US. However most of it is pretty identical so far.

For the price I'd recommend anyone contemplating buying this book to do so, I found it very useful, well written and quite easy going.
