Off the Shelf: (Books On Company Culture)
As an avid reader, I love to share about the books that I’ve read and equally love to hear about the books you’re reading too.
Recently, I started keeping track of the books that I’ve read. If you subscribe to my monthly newsletter, you’ve likely noticed the Reader’s Corner section in each message.
Below I share the first in a series of lists of books that I’ve read. (View the other lists here: Books on Leadership, Books on Business Operations & Books on Mindset). This particular list is dedicated to books that I believe help foster a better culture in the workplace environment. I include a short description and the rating 1-5 (1 = not my fave, 5 = couldn’t put it down) that I gave it.
You’ll also find links to purchase directly from Amazon if you’re interested in reading any of the books mentioned. Please note that by clicking on the buttons below, as an Amazon Associate, I earn a commission from qualifying purchases. Thank you for supporting my small business!
One of my favorite reads (and I may be a little biased because by marriage, I am an Atlanta Falcons fan!), this book provides a blueprint for leaders in any field to build empowered teams that can achieve collective goals.
A local to me, Oregon story, Keanon Lowe tells the incredible story of how he (as a football coach) prevented a potential school shooting by embracing a suicidal student. This uplifting book promotes compassion and connection, showing how everyday people can make a difference in times of crisis.
This relationship-building read remains relevant for business leaders, those looking to enhance personal magnetism in any arena, or anyone seeking to incorporate human understanding into their life. I found this one to be pretty basic and feel that it would benefit most the person that struggles to build strong relationships.
This book offers valuable lessons in character, team-building, and achieving success at the highest levels and is ideal for leaders, aspiring coaches, business professionals, and anyone seeking wisdom from one of basketball's most respected teachers.
A candid guide to openly discussing and constructively confronting systemic racism in America, providing much-needed perspective. Acho's frank yet compassionate dialogues educate people on the Black experience and path forward for all to understand their biases, grow consciously, and contribute to progress.
