Dylan Schleicher has been working for 800-CEO-READ since 2003. He's done nearly every job, but for the majority of his time here, he's been creating things for us all to learn from and enjoy. Perhaps you've read some of his blog posts here that always include an entertaining and thought-provoking blend of current events and history, pop culture and more esoteric interests, as well as an excellent grasp of the context into which a new business book falls. Or maybe you've thumbed through our Annual (that Dylan project-manages each year) or The 100 Best Business Books of All Time and marveled at the illustrations and photographs. Possibly you are a dedicated reader of ChangeThis and look forward to each month's release. If so, then you've had the pleasure of partaking in some of Dylan's contributions to the information 800-CEO-READ produces every day. I have the pleasure of creating new content here at 800-CEO-READ alongside Dylan and the quality of his work inspires me to improve mine.
On Sunday we had the pleasure of being witness to and participating in Dylan's wedding to Kat, whose photographs have also populated our products and she has made even our ragtag bunch look good on our About Us page. Her other work can be seen at Ellagraph.
So to Dylan and Kat, we want to say a hearty congratulations, and we hope you will join us in wishing them luck and love in the coming years.

Fortune - 10 Tips From the Best in Business

In 100 Best - 800 CEO Read Blog
Fortune has published 10 tips from Jack and Todd on their Postcards blog. They introduce themselves:
As authors of The 100 Best Business Books of All Time, published in February by Portfolio, we found ourselves stumbling across the most important business insights of the last 30 years. We learned plenty about leading, managing, innovating and saving your company and yourself when disaster lurks around the corner. In case you don't have time to read all the stuff that we did–-or you're so busy that you can't even to read our new book!--here are 10 pointers that we picked up from those 100 Best books:
To read those 10 pointers, head on over to the original Fortune Postcards blog post. (The name of their blog has me wondering why Fortune doesn't have a blog entitled "Cookies.")
Also, in case you missed them, four of their tips have been turned into posters. You can purchase them as a set, or individually:

The Four Best Posters from The 100 Best Business Books of All Time

In 100 Best - 800 CEO Read Blog
We're really ratcheting it up for the ole book launch, which is one week from today. As part of the rolling out, we've commissioned four artists (I'm one) to develop four posters based on four choice passages from The 100 Best. They are all gorgeous (I think I'm allowed to say that) and they're very reasonably priced at $12.00--$40.00 for all four. Four for fore for four. Sorry about that, there are just a lot of fours in this post.
So, for just forty dollars, you can have four posters to brighten your forlorn office fortresses. From left to right, the poster's themes and artists are:
- Be Remarkable, People Will Talk by wise friend of the company, Mya-Lisa King
- Manage Actions, Not Time by our genius designer, Joy Panos Stauber
- Drive Pushes/Passion Pulls by our lovely and talented photographer, Kat Berger
- Any Industry is Ripe for Reinvention by our awkward resident illustrator, me.
If you don't buy these posters, I will cry.
