Audio books are great for business
November 28, 2008 1:16 pm ArtsWhat’s the time in your busy working day that you can spend not being pestered by phone calls and requests for this, that and the other?
Likely it’s during your journey in and out of the office. Mp3 players such as the ipod, are so accessible, and many executive cars now come equipped with mp3 capability. So the thought of spending your travel time absorbing the latest business advice masterpiece is now a reality.
The answer when the only time you have doesn’t enable you to read a book, is download audio books. Online audio books usually come in mp3 formats so can be on pretty much any and every digital music device, from portable players, to computers, to mobile phones, too.
Use your time wisely. Download books from many of the big publishers, or from specialist audio book suppliers such as Audible.com or through Apple’s iTunes – particularly if you have an iPod or iPhone.
Learn on your down times – it could make the difference to your career.
