What's your MBA IQ? A combination of what you know and
how much you've applied this knowledge on the job, your MBA
IQ is what defines your management knowledge in today's
business climate. It's what keeps you at the top of your
profession, an expert in your specialized field with an
understanding, as well, of cross-functional disciplines.

Arming you with a solid foundation across the entire MBA
curriculum to interact with colleagues, clients, senior management,
and professors at a higher, more advanced level, international
business expert Devi Vallabhaneni helps you get the most from
MBA-level topics--and ultimately, develop your career. This
authoritative road map facilitates advanced management education
and reveals a structured approach for career development in the
management profession, equipping you with nuts and bolts coverage
of:

* General management, leadership, and strategy

* Operations management * Marketing management

* Quality and process management * Human resources
management

* Accounting * Finance

* Information technology

* Corporate control, law, ethics, and governance

* International business

* Project management

The related self-assessment exercises available at www.mbaiq.com
allow you to compute your MBA IQ. You can find out where your
weaknesses are and then begin to develop your knowledge base to
gain proficiency in all management areas and become a true business
generalist.

Since the MBA degree has become a de facto standard in
management education, the goal of What's Your MBA IQ? is to
make the knowledge contained in an MBA accessible to all business
practitioners. As a result, this book is equally relevant to
business practitioners, whether or not they pursue an MBA. Also,
your organization can use What's Your MBA IQ? to assess its
business practitioners' readiness for corporate rotation
programs, high potential programs, the CABM, the CBM, or an MBA
degree.

Rezensionen

"In the preface to her book What's Your MBA IQ? A Manager's
Career Development Tool, Devi Vallabhaneni wishes she had had
this book with her before she started her MBA at the Harvard
Business School. Therein lies the inspiration for the book. MBA,
she says, is like mastering a language and that one year
shouldn't be used for just picking up the basics. This book,
therefore, is a guide for students preparing for their MBA entrance
exams." (Livemint.com, August 15, 2010)

"The MBA IQ is what defines your management knowledge in today's
ever-changing business cilmate. This informative book, by the
president and CEO of the Association of Professionals in Business
Management, serves as a roadmap, facilitating advanced management
education." (AM New York, November 2, 2009)
