An Entrepreneur’s Book Guide for 2022
Finding a good book is one of my most time-consuming (yet rewarding) activities. In the spirit of saving you time and contributing to your growth, I’ve whittled down my 45 reads from 2021 into my top 14 suggestions for you in 2022.
My selections span personal development and business. Why? Because you are a whole person, not easily separated into different categories. Your personal well-being deeply impacts your leadership and the growth of your company.
Here are my top picks, in no particular order:
-Four Thousand Weeks ( Oliver Burkeman)
This book builds on the premise that the average lifespan is about 4,000 weeks. Using that as a framework helps you to be rigorous when you’re choosing how to spend them. It up-ends much of the common conversation around time management, productivity, “hacks”, and tips.
-Beyond Entrepreneurship (BE 2.0) — Jim Collings and Bill Lazier
This is a great read for a) those who are scaling a company, growing their team, and their offerings, and/or b) those who coach or consult for such companies. It’s full of well-researched, thoughtful, and applicable advice.
