S02E15 - People - Sharpen the Saw or: Ten (minus one) perennial leadership books

In the world of books, movies, and plays, certain gems have the power to shift our perspectives and deeply resonate with us.

As for books, over the years, I've come across several works that have stopped me in my tracks, causing me and countless others to re-evaluate our choices and actions.

I've been an avid reader of business books, often devouring 2-3 per month during my global travels. I shared the most impactful ones with my direct reports, hoping to encourage a different perspective.

Let me share the books I felt were most helpful in my roles as a global executive.

We start with leadership and cultural awareness favourites in the first instalment of two.

And…please forgive me for being a bit more structured in my delivery this time - I wanted to ensure that the essence of the books comes across - so there are less of my usual shenanigans…


Enjoy!
