The 12-Week MBA: Learn the Skills You Need to Lead in Business Today

Based on the 12-Week MBA by Abilitie, a 12-week mini-MBA program taught to professionals at global Fortune 500 companies, The 12-Week MBA practical tips for managers and aspiring business leaders. n Getting an MBA takes time and money, making it inaccessible to many people who want to take charge in the business world. Now The 12-Week MBA offers an alternative way to learn business essentials, focusing on the skills and knowledge required to succeed as a manager and business leader. n nThe 12-Week MBA's unique premise is that there is a core set of business skills that entrepreneurs and future leaders of organizations can learn and will need regardless of their industry, function, or level. Those core skills--value creation, people skills, and decision-making--can be learned in less time and at lower cost than in a traditional two-year MBA, where the typical content becomes obsolete by the time students have graduated. n n Authors Bjorn Billhardt and Nathan Kracklauer, leaders of Abilitie, a leadership development provider, have customized and honed their virtual 12-week MBA course over the last 20 years. Now they bring you the key lessons from this curriculum in an accessible, engaging guide. nn
