This has nothing to do with finance and everything to do with your day-to-day life (at the office and elsewhere).

Guy Kawasaki – VC, former Apple evangelist, and a very entertaining blogger – recently posted a list of things he wished he'd learned in school and points out how traditional education does a poor job of training us all for the workplace.

10+ things Guy Kawasaki wishes he had learned at school:

1. How to talk to your boss
2. How to survive a meeting that's poorly run
3. How to run a meeting
4. How to figure out anything on your own
5. How to negotiate
6. How to have a conversation
7. How to explain something in 30 seconds
8. How to write a one-page report
9. How to write a five-sentence email
10. How to get along with co-workers
11. How to use PowerPoint
12. How to leave voicemail
