g BRETT’s comments from the Alternative MBA group.

...as I stumble my way around the group features here on GoodReads as I try to set it up.

What I've found is that groups are set up like, well, a book group or book club. You can set start and end dates for a book, create a folder for discussions (like you would have at a club meeting), etc. But I would like to keep this a bit more free flowing. After all, one of the key reasons for doing an alternative MBA is to set your own course.

For a preview of the book, if you haven't already read it, check out the video that started it all (and the rest of the site).

As I'm starting to think what to put on the list, I'm wondering how much emphasis I should put on "the" classics (ie, the old ones), and how much I should look to the newer "classics" of business in the 21st Century. I'm leaning towards a mix heavy on newer stuff, but with some of the true, timeless classics.

What do you think?
