Personal Recommendations
I can personally recommend any of the Ken Blanchard books – they are very easy to read and are told as a story.
The Jim Collins books were extremely motivating for me and are my absolute favourites.
If you are building your business with the intention of selling it one day then please read Built to Sell by John Warrilow.
If you are looking at your life/work balance then you really have to read The Heart of Success by Rob Parsons.
I hope you enjoy them as much as I have.
