Josh Kaufman’s The Personal MBA: Master the Art of Business Summary
This is a Summary of Josh Kaufman’s the personal master the art of business.
Getting an MBA is an expensive choice-one almost impossible to justify regardless of the state of the economy. Even the elite schools like Harvard and Wharton offer outdated, assembly-line programs that teach you more about PowerPoint presentations and unnecessary financial models than what it takes to run a real business. You can get better results (and save hundreds of thousands of dollars) by skipping business school altogether. True leaders aren't made by business schools - they make themselves, seeking out the knowledge, skills, and experience they need to succeed. Read this book and you will learn the principles it takes most business professionals a lifetime of trial and error to master.
This summary provides the essentials of entrepreneurship, marketing, sales, negotiation, operations, productivity, systems design, and much more, in one comprehensive volume. The Personal MBA distills the most valuable business lessons into simple, memorable mental models that can be applied to real-world challenges.

A Good book, really short and direct, it gives you a lot of practical idea to be successful, whether you work for a company or in your own business.
It should be read more than once to get trough the ideas. It’s a consulting lecture, it may help you to come up with better solutions for specific process.
It tells you what you can do, but it doesn’t tell how to do it, but it shows many examples.
Understanding the origin of the concepts we won’t need to memorize but to think.
