this is long... really long. However it is also really informative and a book I will use as a resource, coming back to lectures as and when they are relevant in my day to day business life.

I 'read' this book whilst in the car which was frustrating as, especially in the finance section, note taking would have been useful.

Hope that helps

Very informative

Enjoyed all but Roberto. That may be because I was looking for business concepts and Roberto offered interpersonal skills in a business environment, certainly worth including (may be more a question of motivations than content). Overall there's a lot of great content and something for anyone interested in business skills.

Different professors narrate their own areas of expertise in a very convincing and engaging way. This was a long, intense course, but totally worth my time. I loved it, I will listen again soon.

Five or six amazing business courses in one!
