Praise for MBA IN A DAY(R)

"Dr. Stralser's book, MBA in a Day is must reading for every physician who is in a management role, anticipates management responsibilities, or functions in a private, solo, or group practice setting. Insights into the fundamentals of management, marketing, personnel management, finance, and economics will add to one's satisfaction and understanding of his or her contribution in the delivery of modern medicine."
--Anthony F. Vuturo, MD, MPH, FACPE Senior Vice President, Canyon Ranch Health Resort Professor Emeritus, University of Arizona College of Medicine

"After thirteen years in the National Hockey League, making the transition from professional athlete to entrepreneur has been eased by the practical knowledge that I have implemented from Professor Stralser's MBA in a Day."
--Jim Johnson Cofounder, FlexxCoach, e-learning for coaches and athletes Former National Hockey League player

"Increased demands, limited time, and higher expectations challenge executives as never before. MBA in a Day is an excellent resource to cut through all the noise and focus on fundamental guiding business principles."
--David E. Ratcliffe Director, The Merrill Lynch Center for Philanthropy and Nonprofit Management

"Steve Stralser is a master teacher. An MBA from Wharton or Harvard will cost you an arm and a leg. Read this terrific book and invest the money you would have spent on tuition into your own business."
--Robert Kramer, PhD Director, Executive Education Programs School of Public Affairs, American University

"The 'fundamental' business principles that Professor Stralser teaches in MBA in a Day are integral to sustaining a fast-growing business by any entrepreneur not formally trained in these concepts."
