Who are we?

Business in Brief publishes practical business books for people who solve problems at work. There are 7 books today, and more are on the way.

Every book takes one field of business and explains it the same way: one framework per chapter, a diagram drawn the way the field draws it, a worked example with real numbers and a worksheet you can fill in the same day.

The methods consultants use aren't secret. They're scattered across MBA syllabi, long textbooks and internal training decks that most people never see. We put them in order, in plain words, with a worked example and a worksheet for each one, so anyone can learn them and use them on real problems at work.

Business in Brief is run by Nenad. It is a trading name of MILLIONAIRE GROUP LLC, 30 N Gould St, Ste R, Sheridan, WY 82801.

And the best part? This is only the first shelf.
