Flurry of topics to consider - more business advice from Uncle Ralph, comments on the Virginia Tech massacre, business issues discussed at lunch, or the best seller I finally bought "Good to Great" by Jim Collins?
Let's settle on the latter - best business books that must be read if you're serious about being a better manager or running a more successful business.
On my list:
- Built to Last, also by Jim Collins
- In Search of Excellence by Tom Peters and Tom Waterman(?) the original business best seller that is claimed to have started an industry.
- Ben Franklin's 12 Rules of Management by Blaine McCormick and the Autobiography of Ben Franklin by Ben himself (obviously).
- Swim with the Sharks Without Being Eaten Alive by Harvey Mackay
- The Bootstrapper's Bible by Seth Godin
- The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen Covey
- First, Break All the Rules by Marcus Buckingham & Curt Coffman
And on your recommended reading list?
