Customer Reviews
A great introduction to business principles.
This book provides a great introduciton to the key elements of business. After reading it, my business vocabulary was greatly increased. I found this book a better read than "The Portable MBA." "Fast Forward," with less reading, seems to cover more (e.g., economic value added).
