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

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
