Nicholas Bate’s Book ‘Instant MBA’ and Other Great Resources for 2010

January 3rd, 2010 // 8:39 pm @ Tanmay // 16 Comments

Nicholas Bate is a prolific thinker, blogger and author. More than that, he is a wonderful friend.

He shared some of his best work with me in 2009, in form of his books and innovatively done cards. With his book titled “Instant MBA" – Think, perform and earn like a top business-school graduate” – I can safely say that I have just completed my “Instant Do-It-yourself MBA”!

The thing about a good book is – every time you read it, you learn something new. Instant MBA will do that with some very practical advice on how to inculcate MBA thinking and emotional intelligence to advance your career. Through this book, Nicholas Bate intends to say that more than a degree, MBA is a way of thinking. Whether you have done an MBA or not, whether you are experienced or novice, you got to read Instant MBA. MBA thinking is crucial for success in modern workplace.

Creativity, Effective Presentations, Pricing, Excellence, Vision, Human Resources, Research, Entrepreneurship are just some of the topics covered in the book. Bate’s brevity and style of representation comes out nicely in each chapter – informal and straight-to-the-point. Quotes at the end of chapters add to the reading pleasure.

Here are a few more FREE resources (PDF Downloads) from Nicholas Bate’s kitty –

“How to be BRILLIANT” – 50 short ideas for personal excellence. I have taken a print-out of this to refer it often.
“Selling Without Tears” – A fantastic selling guide with practical ideas.
“How to Write & Publish Your Business Book” – A very recent gem from Prof. Bate.

2010 promises to be exciting and there is no better time than now to read such brilliant resources and go from good to great!
