Businesses surround and support our lives, influence our culture, and shape our environment. Today, almost everything in the modern world involves some commercial elements, making it more essential than ever to understand what drives good business and what "good" exactly means in the modern business world. The MBA curriculum is designed to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of business and its broader context. Although business is constantly changing, there are typically fundamental skills and principles that underpin the core functions, expectations, and philosophies of the commercial world. The MBA aims to develop capabilities in all these areas, to cultivate detail-oriented, open-minded, and strategic thinkers who can thrive in the modern business world. This modern world demands businesses to be truly sustainable, not just profit-driven, but also impactful on society. This book explores some of these ideas. Many of the skill sets included in an MBA are widely applicable across a broad range of situations and industries. Critical and analytical thinking, effective leadership and impactful teamwork, creativity, and the ability to communicate clearly are important everywhere. This book is designed to give you an overview of the skills an MBA encompasses and introduce you to the concepts and principles through which you can analyze, describe, and create businesses. While you will find traditional MBA topics covered in this book, spatial limitations dictate that there is always more information than can be covered on any particular topic.
