I read this book a few years ago. I am a qualified MBA and had been working 3-4 years post qualification. What made me pick this book was, basically, curiosity. I wanted to see how this book can claim to teach, something we have spent 2 years in studying, in 10 days!
I went through the book and liked the way it started. But after 2 chapters I found the book a bit slow. I thought it could have been more fast paced considering that it had to cover almost 2 years of learning in 10 days. One more observation I made was that the examples and situations used do not accurately relate to our situation.
I think for a professional course like MBA most of the learning happens because of project works, case-study solving, and sharing of real life examples by the faculty. One cannot just read and understand practicality of the concept very well. Having said that, the book is still very well written and does cover the topics well.
