My wife told me that when I do these posts on recommended books, I should mention that I read 50-100 books a year. So, I’m not recommending things off the cuff here. These are the best books I know of on the subjects.
When it comes to management, here are the top seven books I recommend:
1. First, Break All the Rules: What the World’s Greatest Managers Do Differently
2. Built to Last: Successful Habits of Visionary Companies
3. Good to Great: Why Some Companies Make the Leap… and Others Don’t
4. In Search of Excellence: Lessons from America’s Best-Run Companies
5. The Effective Executive: The Definitive Guide to Getting the Right Things Done
6. Principle Centered Leadership
7. The Four Obsessions of an Extraordinary Executive: A Leadership Fable
