The Per­sonal MBA is a site ded­i­cated to help­ing peo­ple gain an MBA edu­ca­tion with­out the expense of busi­ness school. It’s a self-study guide to advanced busi­ness top­ics and con­cepts. As Kevin Kelly—the found­ing exec­u­tive direc­tor of Wired—says:

No mat­ter what they tell you, an MBA is not essen­tial for land­ing or han­dling a good busi­ness job… Pur­sue your own Per­sonal MBA in tan­dem with actual expe­ri­ence doing some kind of busi­ness. If you com­bine study with actu­ally try­ing stuff, you’ll be far ahead in the busi­ness game.

An impres­sive intro­duc­tion comes in the form of the Change This Man­i­festo, and one of my favourite pages on the site is the book list: The 99 Best Busi­ness Books.
