Question

And between The economist and Harvard Business Review if you were to choose one which one would you go for? Thanks a lot in advance The community here especially the experts, we appreciate your advice be blessed.

Answer 1

Hey, I used the following during my prep days and continue to use them today :). Didnt spend a $ given there is so much free content available:

Bloomberg
CNBC
Inc.
TED Talks
Economist
Free McK Newsletters

Other good sources to learn on the job (might requires some $ for subscription)

Gartner Webinars
Udemy
FT

Answer 2

Honestly, I highly recommend The Economist over HBS. The Economist doesn't just provide business background, but world trends, chart reading, critical thinking, etc. etc.

In addition to The Economist, I also recommend the following:

The Financial Times
McKinsey Insights
BGG Insights
SpencerTom

Answer 3

No - you can read a lot of the material that is similar in other sources

Stick to

Economicst
Financial Times
Wall Street Journal
Google !

Answer 4

Definitely the Economist! HBR is too focused on specific niche topics, (and then those in great depth) and does not give you broad buisiness input within a reasonable amount of time.

Answer 5

Hello!

Thisis highly personal, but TBH I enjoy very very much the Economist.

And it´s key you enjoy it and you don´t feel it as "homework", since if you do, you will soon abandon.

Try, and see what works best for you, what is enjoyable for every weekend.

Best,

Clara

Answer 6

Hi there!
Both of them are very good, but I would rather choose The Economist. However, you should better compare which type is more appropriate for you.

Hi

I strongly recommend using at least one business journal as a reference to improve your common business sense and be updated on recent trends. HBR is great
