As I love to read I’ve devoured my fair share of business and marketing books throughout the years. Here are some that I highly recommend because I found them either useful, inspiring or just enjoyable. Some of them have links to a deeper review I’ve written in my blog.
Some of these books mix a biography perspective as well as a business or organisational perspective. Hence why some books may at first glance not be related to business, however, I think they contain useful lessons for leadership, maintaining a healthy attitude, overcoming challenges and so forth. That I think is a really useful perspective to read from for personal development and progress.
