That core consists of working through and with other people to create value while using financial concepts and metrics to maximize the value created for all company stakeholders. The timeless essence of managing numbers and leading people can be learned in less time and at a lower cost than in a traditional two-year MBA, where much of the curriculum may become obsolete by the time students graduate. Authors Bjorn Billhardt and Nathan Kracklauer are senior executives at Abilitie, a global leadership development company that has served over 100,000 learners in fifty countries. Abilitie's clients include some of the world's most recognizable brands such as Coca-Cola, The New York Times, and Dell. Now the key lessons from Abilitie's 12- Week MBA curriculum are available in this accessible and engaging guide. \u003cbr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBjorn Billhardt\u003c\/b\u003e is CEO and founder of Abilitie, a global leadership development company.
