What I Read in April

One of my personal goals this year was to capture more of my learnings from the books I read. And what better way than to start a blog? So, that's what I did a month ago. The timing couldn't have been better. In the midst of COVID-19, with all of my non-work activities canceled, I had more time to read than ever before.

My plan is to regularly capture what I'm learning from the books I read on my blog. And at the end of each month I will recap my favorite books from the past month. You can read my post from the first quarter of 2020 here. All of my posts will be shared here on LinkedIn as well as on Facebook and Twitter.

Here's What I read in April. It includes several books about organizational culture, one on marketing in a world where two-thirds of your marketing is out of your control, a book on an ancient personality typing system, a biography of C.S. Lewis and a stunningly-contemporary look at the 2,000+ year-old book of Ecclesiastes.

Hope you enjoy reading the blog as much as I enjoy writing it.
