'Citius est Melius' (Quicker is Better)

Think of The 80 Minute MBA as your reduced Shakespear for business. A traditional MBA might get you in the door, but it won't help you much once you are in. The 80 Minute MBA is for anyone in business who wants to get ahead without going back to school. A formal business education is great for anyone who wants to think in the same straight lines as the next person, but what if you want inspiration, creative thinking and a set of dynamic approaches in less time than it takes most meetings to get past coffee and biscuits?

Richard Reeves and John Knell have sorted the great business ideas and key issues from the rest, so you don't have to. They cover all the crucial topics including leadership, sustainability and ethics, community-building, corporate culture and finance — delivered in a way that will really make you sit up and think.

The 80 Minute MBA will wake up your mind with fresh ideas and save you a bundle on getting ahead in business.

Pure, unadultered, trash.

And that is the positive things you may say about this book. Written by two morons that seems to never have attended an MBA course, and consisting of small essays about some thoughts they have, without any backup and professing their idolisation of people and research that have been publicly declared trash. Why read this? Read some Superman or Donald Duck comic, and you'll get better treatment of their subjects.

I want my money back!! Yeash…
