Shannon Quinn: Before getting this book, I was really considering getting an MBA. I already took MOOC courses from business schools, and I ordered the GMAT study book. I run an e-commerce business, and it has been doing pretty well. I learned a lot from just watching other people on YouTube and paying attention to the work they did in order to succeed. I am also a freelance writer, and I wanted to break out of my former genre and get into finance and business writing. At the time, I thought getting an MBA would be one of the only ways to be taken seriously in that setting.

When I heard about The Ten Day MBA, I knew I wanted to at least see what it was all about. I realized that all of my independent research had already prepared me for pretty much everything that was covered in this book. It was just re-affirming what I already knew about business. I think it's a really good way to either open your eyes to how much you don't know, or in my case, help me calm down and realize that paying for the MBA would actually be a huge waste of time and money.

Alexandra BG: it gives a very appropriate summary of all the knowledge you would get from an MBA. OF COURSE an MBA is 20-30% about the concepts, all the rest is about soft skills and networking. I bought this to my ex, who followed then an MBA in the most prestigious European Business School. He read it twice, once before and once after his course and he confirms the promise of the book. Good to have an initial overview of what you're going to study (specially if you're not sure if what you're looking for is an MBA). Highly recommended.

Dennis: Natürlich steckt in dem Buch kein kompletter MBA! Dennoch überzeugt das Buch mit unglaublicher Fülle an nützlicher und anwendbaren Informationen. Vieles kommt BWLern natürlich bekannt vor, dennoch auf keinen Fall eine Zeitverschwendung. Speziell der Schreibstil des Autors finde ich extrem gelungen, keine Sekunde war ich gelangweilt von dem gelesenen, ein wahrer spitzen Autor.
Ich kann das Buch jedem mit den richtigen Erwartungen empfehlen, wer aber denkt hier 2 Jahre voll Schule zu bekommen der ist fehl am Platz.

Bob Swartz: I am a Wharton MBA graduate who will be teaching a survey course on business on the MBA level. To do this, I researched far and wide for the best book I could find to serve as a textbook and this beats all others hands-down. Thumbs up. It is comprehensive, current, well-written, and delivers the skills taught in America's top business schools in a highly reader-friendly manner. Every "nook and cranny" of business is covered. Day 10 with its Minicourses closes the loop. Certainly, it is not a substitute for the in-depth manner by which these principles, concepts, theories, practices would be garnered by taking numerous courses needed to earn an MBA degree. It is not a substitute for earning an MBA degree. However, it will serve as a valuable source of material upon which to learn to some depth of the various business disciplines as you move into or early-on through earning an MBA degree. To serve you well post-degree as a reference relative a comprehensive view of business. Enabling one to go out into the business world with an interdisciplinary, synthesized knowledge of business' various disciplines upon which to draw upon and be effective, successful. This book delivers on its...

Life Long Learner: I ordered the 3rd edition of the 10 Day MBA in 2010 (book) and the 4th edition in 2012 (kindle). After 20 years in a technical field I am now in a ICT Management position. I enrolled for an Executive MBA program with AGSM in 2008 which is on halt at the moment. I wish I had gone through the Ten Day MBA before enrolling for the Executive MBA Program. The Ten Day MBA's given me a much better overview and some of the stuff in this book relates to the operational environment I am working now. After first reading the 4th edition on one sitting, I am now reading a topic per week, reflecting on operational and business area I am in, and taking down key points as I read each topic. I bought the 3rd and 4th editions to assist me in understanding the business environment and I am not disappointed. I am now able to ask questions on purchase orders and which business unit's book it will hit and where it goes into - Cost of sale (COS) or the General Administration (G&A); thanks to the ten day MBA for making me understand the LOGIC in accounting for a non-business graduate. I would recommend the Ten-Day MBA to anyone who wants to understand business. At the price it is definitely great...

DGF: UPDATE TO REVIEW BELOW: A few weeks ago, immediately after I purchased the book, I did a cursory read of the book but thoroughly read the 'economics' section. At that time I wrote a review that noted the book empahsized GNP over GDP as a macroeconomic measurement tool. My comment related to the fact that GDP, as an economic measurement tool, should have been the primary measurement tool since it is the primary measure used by nations worldwide. After several emails from the author, all very positive, he noted that in the upcoming edition this change will be made in the 'economics' section. I've now nearly finished the book (mostly as great airline reading!) and have found it to be clear, concise and a most worthwhile read. I definitely recommend it.

Quite inconsistent. While some parts are thorough, others are sketchy, and in some instances just incorrect. Example: in November 1991 the US changed from using GNP as the prime measure of economic activity in the nation and started using GDP. This book still uses GNP and only mentions GDP. I wrote the author an email related to this but have yet to receive the courtesy of a reply. This significant error has caused me to read...

Michael: I'm a software developer who's always had a mind for business. I've worked for a few start-ups and even started a few myself. My wife has an MBA and I had been thinking of going to school for an MBA when I found this book. My wife read parts of it and confirmed that it is the same material in an MBA program. Now I won't claim this book will teach you everything you'll learn in an MBA school (obviously), but I will claim this is a great book for anyone considering an MBA as well as for anyone who has one and wants to brush up on the material. The author presents the most important information tought in business schools, at a high level although full of real examples. What I liked most was how he gave specific real life examples, sometimes true and sometimes ficticious. For example, one that I remember off the top of my head, he explains how Quaker bought Snapple when it was popular but couldn't win the battle against Coke and Pepsi and ended up selling it at a huge loss. There's tons of real life examples like that. I like the style of the book, because he presents the material at a high level and if you want to go into detail you can pursue the subjects that interest you on your...
