Critique of MBA Outlook
November 15th, 2009
The MBAoutlook blog tackles everything about the MBA industry, which makes it a great resource for people who plan to take their MBA or for people who are actually studying to finish their degrees. The varied posts makes it really interesting. It covers information about MBA all over the world. Yes, it does not only talk about MBA in the US or UK. You can even find information about MBA in Asia.
What I love about this site
One blog post that I really loved reading is about unemployment. I really loved the insights that Joel Friedman shared in this post. Indeed, unemployment is a difficult phase in every person?s life. A person?s job is part of his or her identity, and if that is taken away, that person will somehow feel incomplete or inadequate, not to mention the negative effects that it can bring to a family. He also talked about the importance of communication and knowing how to brand one?s self.
It is also great to read a list of the best business books in the market today. It covers topics about communication, decision-making, productivity, project management, marketing, sales, and many more. There?s a book review for every title in each topic.
To prove how varied the topics are, there is one blog post about testosterone and women traders. It talked about the scientific studies, which showed the relationship of testosterone and the risk-taking behavior of women.
On a personal note
Because of the multitude of information that the blog contains, a first-time visitor may find it cluttered or overwhelming. It is good that the blog is simple and easy to the eyes. It used white as the background color with fonts that are readable. The tabs at the top of the page are also very helpful in navigating around the site. It is really quite easy to find a particular topic that interests the visitors.
