Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book will help students of business and management to make a successful transition to university and take control of their personal development. In bringing together academic and employability skills, readers are encouraged to make connections between the skills they have developed inside and outside the classroom and to start the process of personal development planning sooner rather than later. Chapters are organised around five essential skills for success (time management, academic reading, academic writing, group-work and independent learning), and enlivened by student perspectives, activities and 'pause for thought' reflective exercises. This book is an essential resource for undergraduate and postgraduate students on any business and management course, as well as related fields including accounting, finance, marketing, human resource management, and hospitality, leisure, and tourism management.
