Good Summer Reads

July 10th, 2008 by

{{stephanie}} A lot of us are heading up to cottages and campsites with a book or magazine in tow.  Here is a short list of some fantastic business book reads.

If you have reads some or all of the selections below, please post your reviews for others to see.  Multiple perspectives are always beneficial.  Over the next few months I am going to read and post a summary and a review of some of the books listed below.

1. Good to Great: Why Some Companies Make the Leap…and Others Don’t by James C. Collins

2. Built to Last: Successful Habits of Visionary Companies by James C. Collins

3. The Emyth Revisted: Why Most Small Businesses Don’t Work and What to do About it by Michael E. Gerber

4. The Go-Giver: A Little Story About A Powerful Business Idea by Bob Burg & John Mann

5. Blink: Powerful Thinking without Thinking by Malcolm Gladwell

Okay, those 5 should get you at least until September!!

    I’ve read Blink. Great book. He sites some very interesting studies that make you realize your subconscious is always working. Prejudices that you thought you never had probably exist and these studies clearly point them out. I think this book should be mandatory reading for every college student or maybe even every high school student in America. It would eliminate a lot of discrimination that we have in today’s society.

    I wonder if the Blink book is anything like The Secret. I would definitely recommend that one. I like books that make me want to work hard! I’ll have to try these out when I leave for camping today.
