Are you reading these books?

A couple of weeks ago I let you in on a secret (I’m working on my next book!) and I also asked you a question:?

“What books are you reading to help you advance in your career and why did you choose them?”

I received so many thoughtful responses and many of you asked for the full list of recommendations, so here’s the complete list.

And below are a few highlights of the books endorsed by your fellow high achievers, along with a note from each recommender.
