Tough month from a reading perspective. Only two books. May be one more if time permits.
HBR's 10 Must Reads on Managing Yourself
This is a set of arguably the best 10 HBR articles on managing oneself, from Peter Drucker to Stephen Covey. I have read all these articles in the past and it would be a different experience to read all of them together.
HBR's 10 Must Reads on Managing Yourself will inspire you to:
Read This Before Our Next Meeting
This is another books from Seth Godin's Domino project in association with Amazon.com. The book is a call for action: you (or your boss) needs to create the company that does the meaningful work it was created to do. How many times have you dreaded going to a meeting either because you viewed it as a waste of time or because you weren’t prepared. Dread no longer: Read This Before Our Next Meeting not only explains what’s wrong with “the meeting,” and meeting culture, but suggests how to make meetings more effective, efficient, and worthy of attending. It assesses when it’s necessary to skip the meeting and get right to work. Al Pittampalli shares examples of transforming workplaces by revamping the purpose of the meeting and a company's meeting culture.
Even More Notes from the Universe
Another great spiritual book by Mike Dooley in which he continue to dispense wisdom, humor, and insight into the truth about creating the future we desire. Focusing on the desired results joyfully and with gratitude is infinitely more engaging than struggling and stressing about them. Relax, laugh, and enjoy the footwork the Universe has to share.
