The MBA Handbook, 9th Edition, by Cameron, is a vital resource for MBA and other postgraduate management students to gain maximum learning benefits from their programme. This clearly structured handbook addresses the specific challenges of management study and the transferable skills required to meet these, including:

Managing self-time, stress and the risks associated with study
Learning and professional development, including reflective and action learning, critical reading and thinking and using data and other evidence
Working with others, including teamwork and leadership, group creativity and problem-solving
Demonstrating learning, including academic writing for assignments and exams, making presentations, building portfolios, and assessing for and during employment
Consultancy, research and project management

With real-life case studies, business examples, new activities and exercises in every chapter, this successful text is designed to prepare and support you early in your studies, at key points during the programme, and well into your subsequent career. It also aids distance learning students and covers issues relating to EFL and ESL students.

Praise for The MBA Handbook

"A practical and thorough handbook, that prepares MBA students to balance work and study."
Harriet Richmond, Subject Leader of HRM and Organisational Behaviour, University of Northampton

"The MBA Handbook appropriately introduces theoretical concepts and real-life examples to underpin practice-based exercises and thinking."
Jayne Mothersdale, National Teacher Fellow, Leeds Beckett University

"The main strength is the generic nature of the book. This makes it a very useful "one-stop"resource for MBA students."
Dr Angela McGrane, Senior Lecturer, Northumbria University
