Readers aren't always leaders, but, leaders are most certainly always readers. Here is a list of the top 5 books our business business leaders recommend to aid in your journey to personal success:
#1. The Go-Giver by Bob Burg with John David Mann
In 2008 a “little story about a powerful business idea” took the business world by storm with its message: that shifting our focus from getting to giving (constantly and consistently providing value to others) is not only a fulfilling way to live life and conduct business, but the most profitable way, as well.
Rapidly going from national bestseller to global phenomenon, The Go-Giver soon gained a devoted following in more than 30 languages and with over a million copies sold.
From businesses large and small, schools, churches and hospitals to law firms and information technology companies, individuals and groups around the world have applied the book’s Five Laws of Stratospheric Success within their organizations and businesses, relationships and personal lives.
#2. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Steven R. Covey
Stephen R. Covey’s book, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, continues to be a bestseller for the simple reason that it ignores trends and pop psychology and focuses on timeless principles of fairness, integrity, honesty, and human dignity.

Dr. Schwartz presents a carefully designed program for getting the most out of your job, your marriage and family life, and your community.
