#BookBlitz: M.B.A. (Discover the truth about leadership) by #DMChristensen @RABTBookTours

Leadership, Business

Date Published: March 13, 2026

Are MBAs actually worth it?

Why do confident people keep getting promoted over competent ones?

Why does modern leadership often look like meetings, buzzwords, and no real decisions?

M.B.A. is a sharp, satirical business book that examines the uncomfortable realities of modern education, leadership, and corporate culture. With dry humor and analytical clarity, it challenges the myths surrounding higher education, management, teamwork, and “hard work,” revealing why so many smart, capable professionals feel stuck despite doing everything they were told would lead to success.

This book explores why credentials don’t equal competence, why confidence is often mistaken for leadership, and why organizations reward appearance over results. It breaks down how flawed systems—not a lack of talent—create inefficiency, burnout, and poor leadership across companies, institutions, and workplaces. Rather than offering motivational clichés or productivity hacks, it provides a clear-eyed explanation of how professional life actually functions in today’s economy.

Written for professionals, managers, MBA candidates, and anyone questioning the value of modern business culture, M.B.A. exposes the gap between titles and ability, education and outcomes, and leadership language versus leadership behavior. It explains why teams frequently slow down high performers, why clarity feels threatening in organizations, and why real competence often goes unnoticed.

This is not a self-help book. It’s not a business manifesto. And it’s not another guide filled with inspirational quoquoteI

It’s a calm, unsentimental critique of the systems that shape education, leadership, and work—and a guide to understanding them without buying into the illusions they sell.

If you’re tired of corporate buzzwords, skeptical of MBA hype, frustrated by ineffective leadership, or curious why the modern workplace rewards the wrong behaviors, this book will give you the language and clarity to finally make sense of it.

Sometimes wonder finds you when you least expect it.

Cece Belle is a high-functioning neurodivergent. She’s also a big believer in destiny, but when her soulmate Robby dumps her mid-flight to Israel, she instantly regrets ever telling him she’s on the spectrum.

Not one to dwell in misery, Cece sips some chamomile hibiscus tea to set herself straight. And with meditation and spirituality on her side, she looks to what’s next. Yet another blow hits when she is kicked out of her rabbinical studies program for “strange behavior.”

Then, she meets Joel. With his quirky demeanor and ability to say all the right things, he gives Cece the desire to begin a new relationship. There’s only one main obstacle: Cece loves living in Los Angeles, and Joel is a diehard New Yorker.

She marries him anyway, despite misgivings that extend beyond their geography. After all, this is her carefully drawn plan—marriage, then kids, then happily ever after. Sometimes though, the best-laid plans are better left in dreamland where they can’t go awry.

Cece in Wonder Land is a twisty journey down a rabbit hole of unexpected anxieties, disappointments, and more questions than answers. But where there is hope, there is life, and maybe Cece can hang on for the next bit of wonder bound to come her way.

Synopsis: An Instant USA Today Bestseller!

Teaming up with your neighbor during a zombie outbreak is a no-brainer, but if it turns out he’s a vampire . . . the stakes couldn’t be higher, in this infectious new paranormal romance from the USA Today bestselling author of Spoiler Alert.

When Edie Brandstrup attempts to save her sweet, seemingly harmless human neighbor from the first major zombie breach in two decades, she’s stunned to be saved by him—and his ridiculously large sword—instead. As it turns out, he's actually a super-old, super-surly vampire. But for all her neighbor's newly revealed cynicism and lethality, Gaston "Max" Boucher (yes, Gaston) is unexpectedly protective. He wants her to stay in his safety bunker until the breach is resolved. Edie can’t risk more innocent people getting killed, though—and Max won’t let her save them alone.

As they unravel a sinister conspiracy to set zombies loose on the world (again), the duo meet a host of lovable allies and discover they're not the only ones willing to fight for the future of humanity. Despite the awful timing, Edie finds herself falling for the vampire who’s helping her save the world . . . but all their dangerous plans could end their future before it even begins. As she and Max battle side by side, Edie must decide whether having a love worth living for also means having a love you'd die for—and, in a world that grows deadlier by the minute, whether that’s a risk she’s willing to take.
