Effective Learning Methods: How to develop the most effective learning method

Russell Sarder chronicles his life as a life-long learner, using his experiences as a young boy in Bangladesh who grew up to become a leading American CEO. Sarder looks at five types of effective learning, classroom, on-the-job training, coaching, mentoring, and self-study, and examines which might work best for you. Along the way, he reflects on the inspirational lives and words of other world-class learners—from Oprah Winfrey to Bill Gates and Mark Twain.
