A favorite business book for designers and visual learners: The Visual MBA, By Jason Barron All the concepts and frameworks you’d learn in an MBA—but sketched out in visual form. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/42409349 ** WHY ** I’ve always had an entrepreneurial itch. My first business was freelance mowing lawns, then freelance art and design by early high school. My family also has a long history of it. But the path to becoming a Designer doesn’t often include the business management education needed to really run and scale a business. The secret most MBAs don’t want you to know is the knowledge is not hard to learn, and it is all available for free at your local library. Really (imo), MBA programs are overpriced networking clubs. But to unlock the business know-how for yourself you have to find it in a form that’s accessible and consumeable. MBA textbooks are not that (esp for designers). That’s what led me to The Visual MBA. Use it for deep learning or just as pocket guide.
