Leaders are readers. Reading helps you discover ideas to try and expand your mental models. In this post, I point you to several lists of books. Check them out. You may discover your next read or even a book that will change your life.
From Michael McKinney: 10 Books to Get You Back to Work
“SUMMER is over. It’s time to take stock of where you are and prepare now to improve your leadership.”
From Bruce Rosenstein: 55 Select Books on Longevity and Productive Aging
“As with all my lists, they are not meant to be exhaustive or definitive. But they should give you a good starting point for the long and growing literature about these topics. I’ve kept to one book per author; in some cases it is their most recent book, but I’m not aiming at a survey of new works on these topics.”
From The Reading Lists: The Best Books On Motivation
“Why put together a reading list of the best books on motivation? Well, motivation is the driving force behind all human action. It’s what propels us to do things, both big and small. Whether it’s getting out of bed in the morning or meeting a deadline at work, motivation is what allows us to turn our dreams into reality. But what exactly is motivation? Put simply, motivation is the desire to achieve a goal.”
