MBA professor Steven Stralser will soon hold a “business triage” clinic when small business owners and entrepreneurs are invited to seek advice, network with other businesses owners and talk business.
Stralser, Ph.D., will discuss current business issues and opportunities with small business owners, entrepreneurs, and even doctors, lawyers, CPAs, veterinarians or anyone else who finds running a business or a practice especially challenging in today’s competitive and complex environment.
“What keeps entrepreneurs, practice owners and partners up at night is likely the challenge of managing and growing the business,” said Stralser, clinical professor of entrepreneurship at Thunderbird: The Garvin School of International Management. “While most professionals and entrepreneurs are well-trained in the core elements of their business or profession, they are often most challenged by the business issues they face when implementing their business plan, or maintaining their practices.”
In response to those needs, Dr. Stralser recently authored a book “MBA in a DAY: What you would learn at top tier business schools (if you only had the time!).” Dr. Stralser will be signing copies at the clinic and providing advice, insight and discussion about business issues.
MBA in a Day is a guide that is targeted to anyone who wants to develop a practice, manage and grow their business, or successfully launch a new venture. The book offers examples, anecdotes and real-world case studies to help readers grasp lessons in management, finance and accounting, marketing and systems processes.
