In Lists - 800 CEO Read Blog
In the past--pre-Internet--we used to publish a catalog called the Gazette. One issue we asked Thought Leaders to submit a list of five books on the subject of "What every leader should read in the next 18 months." After seeing Todd's listings of BusinessWeek books, I remembered this list.
I ask the Blog world, do you really care what Peter Drucker thought in 1997? BTW, he picked the most interesting titles of all the respondents. They were:
Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austin
The Man who Ruled India by Philip Woodruff (out of print)
My Years with General Motors by Alfred Sloan
this is a brilliant book about creating the Sloan book A Ghost Memoir by John McDonald
Character above All: David McCullough on Harry S. Truman Out of print
Now everybody realize that if you asked Scott Adams, Ken Blanchard, Michael Hammer, Sally Helgesen et al, what books they would pick today, chances are they would pick different titles. But still it is fun to see where people's heads were at in 1996/1997.
Let me know if you are interested in more listing.
