Who this book is for
Founders, career changers, and professionals who want the substance of a graduate business education without two years and six figures of tuition. It is equally useful as a refresher for managers who learned finance on the job and want the vocabulary and frameworks to back up what they already sense.
What's inside
Eighteen parts covering strategy, finance, accounting, marketing, operations, negotiation, and leadership — each distilled to the lessons that change decisions. A dictionary of 100 business terms explains the language of boardrooms and term sheets in plain English. Eight named frameworks give you repeatable ways to size a market, read a balance sheet, price a product, evaluate a deal, and prioritise where your time goes.
How to use it
Work through one part per sitting and apply its framework to your own business or role before moving on. The lessons are deliberately short so they can be revisited; most readers keep the PDF open during planning, budgeting, or fundraising work and return to the dictionary whenever an unfamiliar term appears in a document.
