Comment on The Best Business Book I’ve Ever Read (2014)parent

Comments

Some Iconic Business Books I loved and are Worth Reading IMHO.

Use Your Noodle and Get The Boodle (aka Think and Grow Rich by Napolean Hill - that was his proposed but rejected title), Influence, The Psychology of Persuasion by Robert Cialdini, Be My Guest - Conrad Hilton Autobiography, Benjamin Franklin's Autobiography, The Success System That Never Fails - W. Clement Stone, Winning Through Intimidation - Robert Ringer, Scientific Advertising - Claude Hopkins, The Ultimate Marketing Plan - Dan Kennedy, How to Win Friends and influence People - Dale Carnegie, The Psychology of Intelligence - CIA Manual - Richard Heuer https://www.cia.gov/library/center-for-the-study-of-intellig... ,

There are literally thousands of books worth reading, but the above are the ones I found to be the most enlightening.

How to Win Friends and influence People - Dale Carnegie

Probably the most helpful book I ever read as a teenager, and I still read it every so often as a reminder. The lessons are simple but effective, not just in business but all relationships. Empathy, listening, and genuine interest will do more to 'win' people than anything else you can do.
