Personal MBA (2006/2007)
A "Personal MBA" is
a self directed course, which
involves going through an extensive
reading list that covers various
aspects of business. At the
core is a list of 42 books and
periodicals, and the "student"
is free to add to that list
as I have done.
I am using the PMBA format to
refresh my knowledge, as well
as develop a greater understanding,
of business. For more information
on the PMBA, please go to
