CEO Bookshelf - Free blog w/ great books on business & leadership
"In my whole life, I have known no wise people (over a broad subject matter area) who didn’t read all the time — none, zero." — Charlie Munger
There’s plenty of “top 10” reading lists for CEOs and leaders out there, but I started the CEO Bookshelf as a labor of love to provide something both deeper (providing commentary and excerpts) and broader (covering topics outside just standard business fare to include things like economics, history, psychology, ecology, and other subjects just as important to leading and running a business successfully).
These are the books I’d recommend to any CEO (or aspiring leader or manager), drawn from hundreds read during more than a decade as an executive in publishing and ed-tech, including 5 years as a private-company CEO.
The blog is free, is updated regularly, and you can buy the featured books (and many others) from the shop.
