School of Harvard Knocks
Why on earth would you not subscribe to the weekly newsletter of Harvard Business School’s Working Knowledge website? It’s HARVARD fer cryin’ out loud! Yet, we all know there’s no crying in business. And let’s just say, Harvard has been known to bring it.
Like so many other amazing sites, Working Knowledge is huge. It would take a month in there just to scratch the surface. More than 200 Harvard faculty participate in this “forum for innovation in business practice, offering readers a first look at cutting-edge thinking and the opportunity to both influence and use these concepts before they enter mainstream management practice,” according to “About Us.”
Replete with research findings in such categories as finance marketing, operations and strategy, the site is eminently searchable by more than 50 industry categories – from accounting to electronics, manufacturing, real estate and software. They even include a call center category.
They actually have a Faculty Q&A where you can ask specific questions of Harvard professors. Now that’s class. It’s just too cool for school… literally. Well, it IS school, I guess.
