Our Top 3 Business Books
If you are in business and have a community of people around you who appreciate business and personal development, chances are you are recommended books all the time. The golden rule someone taught me is to not buy a book until it has been recommended three times. That advice has saved me money and time trying to keep up with all of the recommendations.
With that said, below are the top recommended books from three of VEA’s team:
Lanna, Co-Founder & CEO
How do you cultivate braver, more daring leaders, and how do you embed the value of courage in your culture?
In this new book, Brown uses research, stories, and examples to answer these questions in the no-BS style that millions of readers have come to expect and love.
Brown writes, “One of the most important findings of my career is that daring leadership is a collection of four skill sets that are 100 percent teachable, observable, and measurable. It’s learning and unlearning that requires brave work, tough conversations, and showing up with your whole heart. Easy? No. Because choosing courage over comfort is not always our default. Worth it? Always. We want to be brave with our lives and our work. It’s why we’re here.”
Nick, Co-Founder & President
One of the most inspiring and impactful books ever written, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People has captivated readers for 25 years. It has transformed the lives of presidents and CEO’s, educators and parents—in short, millions of people of all ages and occupations across the world. This twenty-fifth anniversary edition of Stephen Covey’s cherished classic commemorates his timeless wisdom, and encourages us to live a life of great and enduring purpose.
Derek, Manager of Sales & Marketing
“The Slight Edge” is a way of thinking, a way of processing information that enables you to make the daily choices that will lead you to the success and happiness you desire. Learn why some people make dream after dream come true, while others just continue dreaming and spend their lives building dreams for someone else. It s not just another self-help motivation tool of methods you must learn in order to travel the path to success. It shows you how to create powerful results from the simple daily activities of your life, by using tools that are already within you.
Conclusion:
All three books have personally impacted our lives in many ways and we hope they impact your life as well. We will be doing a few more of these and we are always reading, so what is your top business book? Comment below.
