  • Best Sellers in Business books

    While my reading preferences tend to more literary styles and genre fiction (and I collect and sell mostly gently used books), my background in business development and account management means I try to keep up with trends in the business world and read quality business books as much as possible given a hectic work life. Staying updated can be essential for folks so here are 3 of the most recent top sellers in business books on shop-books.ca (caveat, I have only read two of these this time out so my comments will be sparse). Do you have a favourite business book you would like to share here? I respond to enthusiasm! 1: Atomic Habits by James Clear Subtitled - An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones, James Clear distills complex topics into simple behaviours that can be easily applied to daily life and work. In this book, using real life examples and stories, he draws on ideas from biology, psychology, and neuroscience to create a guide for transforming your habits. 2: How To Lead: Wisdom from the World's Greatest CEOs, Founders, and Game Changers by David M. Rubenstein I like quotes from writers and often I will note down a particularly fascinating or compelling quote from a book I’ve read as you may have noticed from my previous blog updates. This book is full of quotes on leadership and how some of the most famous business people today handle decision making, failure, innovation, change, and crisis. Includes views and advice from Warren Buffett, Christine Lagarde, Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates, Eric Schmidt, Tim Cook, Oprah Winfrey, Lorne Michaels, Renee Fleming, Yo-Yo Ma, Jack Nicklaus, Phil Knight, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Marilyn Hewson and many others. 3: No Rules Rules: Netflix and the Culture of Reinvention by Reed Hastings and Erin Meyer Now, I haven’t read this one yet but I know it was longlisted for the 2020 Financial Times & McKinsey Business Book of the Year and sells well here. In this book we have Netflix cofounder Reed Hastings revealing the unorthodox culture behind one of the world's most innovative and successful companies. Since I am Netflix all the time, I must get round to reading this one soon.
