Bury My Heart At Conference Room B: The Unbeatable Impact Of Truly Committed Managers by Stan Slap: This easy-to-enjoy book makes the case for bringing your emotions to work. Managers that personalize business will drive more engagement and produce better results. The book provides great examples of managers who've innovated their work in the most human of ways.
The Orange Revolution: How One Great Team Can Transform An Entire Organization by Adrian Gostick and Chester Elton. From the authors of the Carrot Principle comes a great book about the power of teams. The point is that small groups of people, properly motivated and organized, can change the world at work.
Sun Stand Still: What Happens When You Ask God For The Impossible by Steve Furtick: OK, this is not a business book, so it's a little bit of a diversion from my previous editorial policy. But, it's a great book about the power of audacious faith. Furtick is the fiery senior pastor at Elevation, a very cool church in Charlotte that's redefining the 'church experience.' The book's voice is direct, and will challenge the way you think of yourself and your relationship with God.
I have all three. All are excellent books in their own regard. Steven Furtick is a powerful communicator. Love watching that guy any chance I get.
