 ABOUT parenting mba 

If Harvard Business School and McKinsey & Company raised children together, their parenting strategies would be the same ones given in this easy-to read book of advice.


When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, Harvard Business School graduate and former McKinsey & Company partner Joshua Leibowitz found himself off the road, out of his old routine, and into quarantine with his wife and children. Suddenly, his home life—particularly parenting—became the most challenging project of his career. Could the skills he acquired from leading organizations and consulting for Fortune 500 companies help him become a better parent? How could he build a stronger, more loving family?


The incredible family time gave Leibowitz the opportunity to expand on the core concepts he had gained from a career as a consultant and business leader in order to use them to create a blueprint for becoming a better father and spouse. Parenting MBA candidly delivers relatable anecdotes, honest advice, and winning strategies to help parents and children see each other clearly, support one another completely, and become the best versions of themselves.


Putting these ideas into practice will help parents fulfill their cherished goals of building lifelong positive relationships with their children and raising good people who can reach their full potential.
