101 Things I Learned® in Business School (Second Edition)

This book is SO GOOD! Thank you for summarizing and illustrating key business concepts beautifully. I am 10 years into my career (graduated college in 2014) and I probably would not have been able to fully grasp or appreciate the concepts in the same way if I had read this book earlier in my career. There is a lot of implicit knowledge that comes with experience that you need to fully appreciate the wisdom in this book.

Bought this for readers who are reasonably book-smart but have little to no experience of the formal business world, much less an MBA degree. It is a good set of bite-sized observations and factoids that provide a useful taste of business-school-type-thinking, presented in nicely laid out text with a visually easy to absorb format.A good introductory document for curious teenagers or older adults who want to get a taste of business thinking before deciding whether they want to dive deeper.

As someone looking to sharpen my business acumen, I picked up 101 Things I Learned in Business School, Second Edition, hoping for concise and impactful insights-and it delivered. The book breaks down complex concepts into digestible lessons, ranging from financial principles to strategic frameworks, all paired with helpful illustrations. It's perfect for those wanting a crash course in business fundamentals or a refresher on key ideas. While the simplicity is a virtue, some of the points were too basic for people with prior experience. Generally, it's 4.5 out of 5 for its practicality and clarity; perfect for budding entrepreneurs or anyone interested in the MBA mindset without the student loans.

Great read for busy people. Good to get a good understanding of the basics of business, for those who don't have a background or family in management or finance. Distills highly complex business subjects down into concepts that are quick and easy to understand. Not overly technical with jargon either, and the illustrations are lovely.

As a small business owner, I was thrilled to read some valuable lessons and tips from this book. Well done.

Very simply written, with clear articulation. I am fan of this series and it a fun book you can read in 2 days or so and have some basic insight about the topic.

Owning a design - build custom homes and light commercial contracting business, providing land planning and development, and involved in real estate, this book certainly helps my 17 year old high school student to get a foot in the doors, and be advanced as we move along with his plans to be a part of our company, and one day being the CEO.For the same reasons, I also bought 2 others - 101 Things I Learned in Architecture School and Engineering School, and The Art of Construction, being my son loves and does well in Art. .

Was an excellent overview of the principles and deep structure of business. I don't have time to get my business degree, and with this book I saved a lot of time and got a lot of knowledge for my time invested.
