About this listen

What does it take to reach success in business - the kind of success that lasts? How do you set yourself apart from competitors or venture out into different markets? What does it take to develop streamlined processes, become a stronger team leader, and work your way up the corporate ladder?

It all comes down to a solid grasp of the fundamentals of business taught to MBA students in many of the world's most prestigious business schools. This fascinating 60-lecture course is designed to give you just that kind of comprehensive, accessible introduction. Here in one place is an authoritative guide to the five key disciplines that everyone, entry-level employees and CEOs alike, needs to master in order to reap rewards in today's complex 21st-century marketplace.

Bringing together five prestigious and renowned business professors, each 12-lecture part is a detailed look at a particular skill: strategy, operations, finance and accounting, organizational behavior, and marketing. In exploring each skill, you'll learn about everything from key terms and methodologies to research-backed strategies and case studies involving some of the world's most influential companies. You'll come away with a well-rounded education you can use to more firmly establish your own successful path in the business world. Bringing the MBA experience to you, Critical Business Skills for Success demystifies the secrets of business and provides illuminating, empowering insights that will help you achieve your goals.

The complete list of lecturers includes Professor Thomas J. Goldsby, PhD.

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

It is increasingly more and more important to stay competitive in any market post pandemic. All of the lectures were great and some even better than those i had during my university years. This is my second listen to a Great Courses Audiobook and i plan on listening to many more. Great work.

Great Courses indeed

Would you listen to Critical Business Skills for Success again? Why?

I'm listening to it for the second time now. There is a lot of information that I find very relevant. It's is hard to take it all in the first time. Of course it is not as engaging on the second listen, but it is worth the effort for me at least.

What did you like best about this story?

It gives an comprehensive overview of relevant and up to date business skills.

What does the narrators bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

I'm sure the normal book is fine. Audio format suits me better for many reasons.

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

It made me think. It made me understand more about my own work than I expected.

Any additional comments?

The audiobooks on Critical Decision Making and Transformational Leadership are also very good in my opinion.

one of the best
