I was pleased to hear that Kyle Stock from the Wall Street Journal selected Good Boss, Bad Boss as one of "Six
Business Books to Read at the Beach." I was also a little
surprised because it won't be available officially until September 7,
although they way the book business works, copies will likely begin to be
available by August 20th or so. In any case, I appreciate the vote of
confidence, and here is the rest of is list. All sound interesting,
but the one I just ordered was "The Upside of Irrationality" as Dan
Ariely is brilliant and that sounds like a great topic:
Delivering Happiness, by Tony Hiseh
Multipliers, by Liz Wiseman and Greg McKeown
Employees First, Customers Second, by Vineet Nay
The Happiness Advantage, by Shawn Achor
The Upside of Irrationality, by Dan
Ariely
I would also add Chip and Dan Heath's Switch and the deeply insightful and most troubling The Invisible Gorilla. And, if you never read it, the astounding Orbiting the Giant Hairball — still the best creativity book ever written.
What would you add? What would you subtract?
