Q. - What's your favourite business book you'd advise to young entrepreneurs and why?
M.L. -Some good ones from the "pure business" category: Zero to One, The Hard Thing About Hard Things, The Innovator's Dilemma, Good to Great, etc. Personally, I prefer less advice, more history. From my favorite business segment: Too Big To Fail, Ascent of Money, When Genius Failed, etc. Books on applied psychology (Influence, Predictably Irrational, etc) are another way to round out primarily technological education :) – source2021-12-24T17:43:22.000Z
Just finished reading Good to Great again. Forces for Good and Good to Great are absolutely fantastic books on their own but also quite complementary. Regardless of the enterprise's motive, deliberate leadership and actions clearly do matter. – source2014-10-17T13:36:35.000Z
