If you want to give yourself a personal MBA (in 6 months), read these books:
This post is borrowed from Ben Meer who received his MBA from Cornell and has himself read 300+ business books. As per Ben, you can get 90% of the knowledge from reading books (and without spending $150k).
So, he put together a 6-month personal MBA, which Iām sharing with you here ā
The 6-month curriculum is 12 books. You'll read 2 books every month.
