Forbes calls this book "1 of 6 books that all entrepreneurs must read right now." Business Insider readers voted this book as their "top pick of 2016." In this book you will learn how to get a meeting with anyone. You will learn how to take your career to the next level. You will learn how to reinvent yourself in ways that you never thought was possible! Chris Haroun is a successful venture capitalist and an award winning MBA professor and has had the opportunity in his career to meet with the top CEOs, entrepreneurs and investors in the world, including Warren Buffett, Bill Gates, Marc Benioff, and the CEOs of most large technology companies. This book is an amalgamation of business advice that Chris has compiled from his many meetings with successful business people over the past two decades as well as observations of why brilliant entrepreneurs like Steve Jobs or Mark Zuckerberg have become incredibly successful. Business schools do a good job of providing students with theoretical and practical frameworks that can be applicable to real world problems but business schools often miss teaching students some of the most crucial business lessons like how to network or how to find customers or how to get a job!

This is the book version of Chris Haroun's online course called "An Entire MBA in 1 Course." From the Author of "101 Crucial Lessons They Don't Teach You in Business School", which Forbes magazine calls "1 of 6 books that all entrepreneurs need to read right now." This book will teach you everything you need to know about business....from starting a company to taking it public. Most business books are significantly outdated. This book leverages many online resources and makes the general business, accounting and finance process very easy to understand (and enjoyable too)! There are many incredibly engaging and entertaining video links in the book to YouTube and other sources; 'edutainment' works! Although this book is close to 400 pages, I tried to visualize the content of this book as much as possible as this is a more impactful and enjoyable way to learn (think Pinterest versus the tiny words in the Economist)! The contents of this book are all based on my work experience at several firms, including Goldman Sachs, the consulting industry at Accenture, a few companies I have started, the hedge fund industry where I worked at Citadel and most recently, based on my experience at a prominent San Francisco based venture capital firm. I also included many helpful practical business concepts I learned while I did an MBA at Columbia University and a Bachelor of Commerce degree at McGill University. Think of this book as a "greatest hits" business summary from my MBA, undergraduate business degree, work experience in consulting, equities, hedge funds, venture capital and starting my own companies. As the title of this book suggests, this is an entire MBA in one book; it's also a practical manual to help you accomplish your business career goals. I have minimized "boring theoretical concepts" in this book in order to keep it as close to reality as possible. I hope you enjoy it! Thanks!

This book has over 200 pages plus over 2 hours of video lectures and 15 downloadable templates and 11 exercises to help you master networking and achieve your most ambitious professional and personal goals. Are you ready to take your career to the next level by getting meetings with people you never thought you could get access to? In Chris' latest book (called "Networking to Get Customers, a Job or Anything You Want"), you will learn how to significantly increase your chances of getting a job, customers and anything you want by networking. Professor Haroun has successfully changed careers by networking (he worked at Goldman Sachs, then in the hedge fund industry at hedge fund giant Citadel, in the venture capital industry and in the consulting + tech sectors).
