Forbes calls this book "1 of 6 books that all entrepreneurs must read right now." Business Insider readers voted this book as their "top pick of 2016." In this book you will learn how to get a meeting with anyone. You will learn how to take your career to the next level. You will learn how to reinvent yourself in ways that you never thought was possible! Chris Haroun is a successful venture capitalist and an award winning MBA professor and has had the opportunity in his career to meet with the top CEOs, entrepreneurs and investors in the world, including Warren Buffett, Bill Gates, Marc Benioff, and the CEOs of most large technology companies. This book is an amalgamation of business advice that Chris has compiled from his many meetings with successful business people over the past two decades as well as observations of why brilliant entrepreneurs like Steve Jobs or Mark Zuckerberg have become incredibly successful. Business schools do a good job of providing students with theoretical and practical frameworks that can be applicable to real world problems but business schools often miss teaching students some of the most crucial business lessons like how to network or how to find customers or how to get a job!

Comfortable and Easy Read for Higher Level Concepts

Reviewed in the United States on March 28, 2016

Verified Purchase

Hello Chris,

I just finished your book " 101 Crucial Lessons They Don't Teach You In Business School. " I thought it was an easy read that boiled down higher level concepts to understandable everyday situations frequently taken as commonplace. I finished this shortly after reading " 7 Habits of Highly Effective People" by Stephen Covey. Your book reinforced core concepts from Stephen Covey. My feedback or observation can be directed to page 117 or lesson #83. In the first paragraph I believe there is a spelling error (Ask them were they are form...). I am looking forward to your course on Udemy and wish you the best of luck in your current and future endeavors.

Thank you,
Bobby

Great book, Facts, humor and expertise, all come together. This book really encouraged me to go after my dreams and believe I can do anything.

Reviewed in the United States on April 8, 2016

The book is written as a piece of advice at the top of the page and then one or two paragraphs on each page. It is a nice summary of advice most have heard before. No analysis or synthesis of ideas.

Chris' ability to breakdown real life principles and business in an "understanding" way is AMAZING! I learned more from this boo

An absolute must read! Chris' ability to breakdown real life principles and business in an "understanding" way is AMAZING! I learned more from this book then I did in the 4 years while getting my BA in Business! He breaks up the monotony with funny video clips, and is very relevant in today's society! I have already utilized his teaching in my current life and work place, and it has really elevated my ability to think at a higher level! Thank you Chris for sharing your wisdom!!

Espresso shots of knowledge

Reviewed in the United States on November 23, 2015

Reading this book felt like getting blasted with 101 espresso shots of knowledge. You feel like you're sitting across from an experienced mentor who is dishing out all his life's lessons ... to get this much useful information and insights jammed into one book is very rare. The way Chis incorporates his personal stories into the lessons give them a lot of context. Highly recommended for anyone needing a fresh look at their career or their life!

Awful

Reviewed in the United States on March 14, 2016

Verified Purchase

A complete joke. How is this thing rated so highly? It's written in size 18 font an each "lesson" is just a few sentences, on such pearls of wisdom like "don't talk about politics or religion." "never complain" and "how to get a meeting with anyone" which, spoiler alert, is just look them up on linkedin and write "Hi I'm so and so. Have time for a coffee?"

Probably the most obnoxious thing is ending chapters with smiley faces though. Who does that? (ex. bring it on haters :)) This book was written by a 13 year old girl.
