  • (1888PressRelease) July 21, 2017 - The Unofficial Guide to B-School Partner Life is an inspiring, pragmatic, and informative how-to book, focused on mastering the ins and outs of business school (B-School) partner life.

    More than a million students enroll in thousands of B-Schools worldwide each year. On average, 30 to 40 percent of incoming students enter with a partner by their side. B-Schools are notorious for their all-consuming, high-pressure, and demanding environment. All too often, people tend to underestimate how much this environment takes a toll on their relationships. The weight of academics, networking, and socializing on family time are big contributors to B-School partners’ feelings of isolation.

    The good news is, it doesn’t have to be this way. Despite the negative connotations B-schools have when it comes to maintaining personal relationships, the experience can be quite the opposite. The potential for personal and professional rewards as a partner can be tremendous— and Mona Bijjani’s The Unofficial Guide to B-School Partner Life will provide tried and tested methods and toolsets to come out of experience enriched both as individuals and as a couple.

    “I didn't plan to write this book. It jumped at me and asked to be written,” Mona Bijjani explains. “As I went through the B-School partner experience, I struggled in various ways to make sense of it all, finding myself in countless hit-or-miss situations. I would eventually overcome these struggles, one by one. Through subsequent interviews, research, reading, reflecting, and listening, this guidebook was born.”

    This non-fiction guide is the first and the most complete guide to the business school partner experience. The Unofficial Guide to B-School Partner Life not only explores the potential pitfalls to avoid, but also the many personal and professional rewards to be gained from such a partner experience.

    This book will:
    • Help you prepare for this experience as an individual, as well as a couple.
    • Guide you through navigating the experience to your advantage.
    • Present you with the tactical tools that will help you to create an empowering experience for you and your B-schooler.
