Dear friend, fellow husband, father and hoopster, and socially-oriented entrepreneur Derrick Milligan thought that other readers would be interested in Josh Kaufman’s Personal MBA.
I’ve not participated in the program, which, from a look at his web site, seems to be oriented toward helping people gain and apply business skills they need without quitting their jobs and taking on huge debt.
I have looked at the site, which has a reading list that include Robert Cialdini’s Influence, one of my Top 10 Books of 2008, and Jim Schwartz and Tony Loehr’s The Power of Full Engagement, which I wrote about a couple of weeks ago.
The site also has a blog by Josh, who recently quoted the text of a letter by Thomas Carlyle about reading that I enjoyed.
Thanks for the tip, Derrick! Please keep the contributions coming, everyone!
Thanks – glad you find the PMBA useful! 🙂
Thanks, Josh, for the rapid comment. Just to be clear, I am not real familiar with PMBA, but dear friend Derrick Milligan thinks highly of it.
Good luck!
Jeff
