A few weeks ago I received Leadership Test: Will You Pass? (amazon affiliate link) by Timothy R. Clark, Ph.D. to review
The book is a small one (~99 pages in total) but packed with some interesting content. Clark uses a business fable to describe leadership and what makes up a good leader.
I’m a HUGE fan of [...]
I asked “What’s your focus?” last week and now I wanted to ask another question: What’s your passion?
I picked up Gary Vayernerchuk’s book Crush It!: Why NOW Is the Time to Cash In on Your Passion over the weekend and, while the book isn’t a great piece of literature, it does provide a good kick [...]
I just finished Toy Box Leadership: Leadership Lessons from the Toys You Loved as a Child…somewhat flawed but a good book nonetheless.
Flawed may be a bad word to use for this book. The idea is a great one (more on it later) but the narratives about the lessons could have been stronger. In addition, I [...]
I realized this evening that I’ve got a lot of reading to catch up on. In addition to the Kindle I received for Christmas (and the subsequent books I bought for it immediately after opening it), I’ve got a few ‘real’ books on my desk I need to read through.

I’ve always been wary of the book and the message [...]
Ever see a book in the bookstore that catches your attention and you realize it was a best-seller sometime in the past? You realize you never picked it up to read it and decide that you should?
That’s what happened when I ran across Dealing with Darwin: How Great Companies Innovate at Every Phase of Their [...]
For those that caught my review of Zinsser’s On Writing Well, you may have noticed that I mentioned picking up Zinsser’s “Writing to Learn“.
This book is an easy read and is worth picking up if you’re interested in writing. The book is less of a discussion of ‘how’ to ‘write to learn’ and more of [...]
Instead of a book review like the last two Fridays, I wanted to throw my current reading list up and get any comments and/or recommendations for other books.
Currently reading:
The Fifth Discipline by Peter Senge. I read this a long time ago…just picked up the revised edition.
The Fifth Displince Fieldbook by Peter Senge, Art Kleiner, [...]
