MBA Day by Day (3rd edition) is the practical companion for managers and MBA students who want to translate business-school thinking into real workplace habits.

Written by Henley Business Schools Chris Dalton, this fully updated 3rd edition covers leadership, decision-making, strategy, marketing and finance through concise frameworks, real-world cases and daily practice prompts. It places reflective practice and personal development at the centre of management learning, helping you build the habits, judgement and emotional resilience that make strategy stick.

This edition mirrors contexts managers now face: digital transformation and AI, tighter governance and a stronger regulatory focus on ESG, and sustainable business. A new chapter on Information connects tactical data management with the rigorous critical thinking needed for sense-making and strategic decisions.

A primer for anyone considering an Executive MBA, companion for current students, and refresher for alumni, MBA Day by Day will also help any manager who just wants to think better, act smarter and lead with a clearer purpose, one day at a time.

• Four-part framework: Combines personal development with tactical, strategic, and visionary skills for every career stage.
• Daily practice prompts: turn MBA insights into real decisions and habits.
• Reflective practice at the core: builds judgement, self-awareness and emotional resilience.
• Cross-functional clarity: leadership, strategy, marketing and finance in one coherent toolkit.

The real value of what you learn isnt what you know, its what you keep using. This book is not an MBA replacement; it is an MBA amplifier.
