Must-Read Business Books

 I absolutely LOVE the Enneagram; the concepts in this book have really helped me learn to navigate WHY people do what they do, from myself to my family members to team members around me.  I love how this book really simplifies and makes the Enneagram easy to understand and implement in your life and business.

This book changed a lot for me.  One of my favorite lessons in this book is that nothing is personal.  It really helped me reshape my thinking & learn to approach everything with curiosity and empathy, not judgment.  I really love the teachings in this book and think it is a must-read for literally anyone who interacts with others on any level (so, everyone :) ) If you’re looking for a quick read with big impact, this is the next one to pick up!

Give me anything by Malcom Gladwell and I’m in.  This is one of my favorites of his because of the way it really helps you understand other people.  One of my biggest takeaways is that everyone is coming to the table with decades worth of thoughts / experiences / teachings / lessons - and we truly only see things through our own lens - the concept of “we don’t see the world as it is, we see it as we are” - really shines here.  I became a better leader because of this book, due to the profound way he explains WHY people have done what they did - everyone really has a reason for why they do what they do, even if it isn’t a good thing.  Anyone on my team in leadership is required to read this.  Hands down one of the best leadership books I could recommend.
