The Practical MBA by Sandeep Das
This book will appeal to you if you are keen to do an MBA, are doing an MBA or have done an MBA, and are looking for real-world industry-relevant management education.
An MBA degree is the most coveted educational degree right now as it opens many doors to successful careers and opportunities. However, not everything is right with the MBA education system in India--the textbooks are outdated, the examples are irrelevant and there are not many adequate, industry-related professionals teaching students. This leads to colleges churning out MBA graduates who are demotivated and do not have the right skills to succeed in the world.The Practical MBA aims to help you get a valuable MBA education, i.e. what you should be taught in business schools. It discusses various topics like entrepreneurship, self-help, technological disruption and financial literacy. This holistic guide breaks down various day-to-day business concepts such as pricing, inflation, GDP, statistics and so on. It also provides a glimpse of industries--FMCG, consulting, e-commerce, banking--to help you understand their cultures and demands.
With career-related advice on creating an impactful resume and acing various rounds of job selections, this book provides you with the secret sauce that will help you land the job you want.
Written in an easy conversational style, it is one of the best investments you can make to advance your career.
