About this listen
Read by the driven—the Wall Street Journal calls Case in Point the MBA Bible!
The world’s foremost authority on case interviewing and bestselling author Marc Cosentino demystifies the case interview process, which is not only used for recruiting in consulting, but also in private equity, strategic planning, marketing, logistics, operations, venture capital, and human capital. He takes you inside a typical interview by exploring the various types of case questions, and he shares with you the acclaimed Ivy Case System. It will give you the confidence to answer even the most sophisticated cases.
Now in its twelfth edition, Case in Point is the most current and up-to-date book on the subject and reflects all the latest changes in the case interview process—with plenty of graphs and lessons built in. The book includes 20 strategy cases, with case starts exercises, 28 ways to cut costs, 23 risks (uncontrolled and controlled), and much more.
Case in Point helps you build your case cred from start to finish. I’ve added two additional cases plus new material on the consultant’s mindset, graph analysis, drills in strategy, graphs, and math, As well as information on resumes, cover letters, and behavior interviews. This is the biggest upgrade to the book since 2010.
*The PDF included is a supplemental PDF containing the visual elements present in the book.

Story
Many of us dread having to convey our ideas to others, often feeling ill-equipped, anxious, and awkward. Public speaking experts help by focusing on planned communication experiences such as slide presentations, pitches, or formal talks. Yet, most of our professional and personal communication occurs in spontaneous situations that creep up on us and all too often leave us flustered and stumbling for words. Stanford lecturer, podcast host, and communication expert Matt Abrahams provides tangible, actionable skills to help even the most anxious of speakers succeed when speaking spontaneously.

In this groundbreaking treatise, Palantir co-founder and CEO Alexander C. Karp and Nicholas W. Zamiska offer a searing critique of our collective abandonment of ambition, arguing that in order for the U.S. and its allies to retain their global edge—and preserve the freedoms we take for granted—the software industry must renew its commitment to addressing our most urgent challenges, including the new arms race of artificial intelligence. The government, in turn, must embrace the most effective features of the engineering mindset that has propelled Silicon Valley’s success.

Story
In this eye-opening account, Cal Newport debunks the long-held belief that "follow your passion" is good advice. Not only is the cliché flawed - preexisting passions are rare and have little to do with how most people end up loving their work - but it can also be dangerous, leading to anxiety and chronic job hopping. After making his case against passion, Newport sets out on a quest to discover the reality of how people end up loving what they do.

Americans precede anything negative with three nice comments; French, Dutch, Israelis, and Germans get straight to the point; Latin Americans and Asians are steeped in hierarchy; Scandinavians think the best boss is just one of the crowd. It's no surprise that when they try and talk to each other, chaos breaks out. In The Culture Map, INSEAD professor Erin Meyer is your guide through this subtle, sometimes treacherous terrain in which people from starkly different backgrounds are expected to work harmoniously together.
