Synopsis

"The MBA Handbook" enables readers to: choose the programme and mode of study best suited to their needs, improve their time management skills and free the time needed for study, develop skills in rapid reading, notetaking, case study analysis, group discussion and oral presentation skills, integrate MBA study into career development and progression. The second edition of this popular handbook provides readers with an accessible guide to the "where and how" of MBA studies and maintains the successful formula of the first edition. It gives much needed guidance on choosing, preparing for and surviving an MBA course, with advice on the necessary study skills including analytical report writing, project management and examinations technique. Written as an interactive guide, activities take readers from the initial stage of reviewing their reasons for taking an MBA through to taking positive career development steps after gaining the qualification. In guiding readers through the pitfalls they will undoubtedly face, this handbook will be invaluable in helping them to pass their MBA and develop their managerial skills in the process.

The interactive nature of the material presented in the text is particularly useful for students taking part-time or distance learning programmes. In addition, managers who are not sure that they want a qualification will still benefit greatly from the advice on developing the many skills relevant to their job performance and career propsects. The text is suitable for MBA students doing part-time, full time and distance learning courses. Managers keen to develop the skills relevant to enhanced job performance and career prospects, as well as those interested in embarking on a course of management study.
