Excellent content, well structured. A+
Very practical and well structured content, highly recommended for business minded audiences. The lectures are delivered by a collection if down-to-earth professors in 30min blocks. The best e-course I have come across to date.

Very instructive for a beginner
As someone with no formal business education, this felt like it was a great broad overview of many business topics. I like how the authors had real world examples, some first hand, to illustrate their lessons and they were objective and showed both sides of the coin for any argument.

Basically, this is a mini MBA.
I have recently graduated from an MBA, this audiobook basically covers the fundamentals of the core subjects required:
- Business Strategy
- Operations
- Finance and Accounting
- Organisation Behaviour
- Marketing.
This, to me, is so valuable. I will come back and make notes for it. If you can listen and pay attention to it, these lectures are worth the money. Worth a listen for the first, second and third time. :) I don't see this as a replacement of face to face education because with face to face education we had role-plays and in-depth discussions.
With that being said, the audiobook is a very good start. It makes me wonder what other great courses they have in the area of my special interests.

Well worth it
Certainly will read it (listen to it) again. I found the book very insightful albeit to brief as I would have liked it to go into more depth. But then it would be 100 hours.
