Written on June 30, 2008 Summary: Great for the small business owner Good to Great is a great book for anyone in business. I was amazed at some of the less obvious lessons learned from the years of research as well as the simple truths that seemed obvious after they were revealed. I am a small business owner with a professional degree but with no formal business education. It was good to read "research" that was not all stuffy and dry. A particularly strong point for me was the argument for why I should strive to be great and not just "good" or even "mediocre". I am planning on reading Jim Collins' other book, Built to Last.  Written on June 28, 2008 Summary: A New Way to Look at Growing Your Business "Good to Great: Why Some Companies Make the Leap... and Others Don't" by Jim Collins was a real eye opener for me. In this book, Jim Collins, observes 28 companies over the span of 5 years. Over this period of time 11 of the companies make the leap from "Good to Great". The findings in this book were truly eye opening and inspirational. I loved the chapter on Level 5 leadership. Collins starts the chapter using a quote by Harry S. Truman "You can accomplish anything in life, provided that you do not mind who gets the credit". This is the essence of the book. I also loved that in this book he speaks about how the executives that ignited the transformation for companies that went from good to great, did not figure out how to drive the bus, but how to get the right people on the bus (and the wrong people off) and then they figured out where to drive it. Another book I really enjoyed reading about transformation is Being Here: Modern Day Tales of Enlightenment. Any person who is looking to grow their business would greatly benefit from reading both these books. Written on June 27, 2008 Summary: Good to Great The condition of this book was excellent. I recieved it in a very timely manner. If you currently own or are looking to own your own business, this book is invaluable. The concepts are concrete, realistic, and attainable. I highly recommend this book. Written on June 22, 2008 Summary: A Book That Gets Down To Business If you are like me and struggle to keep a business running at a profitable level, then you need books like this one. In my opinion, "The Businessman's Bible" is an alternative title for this great and informative text. This book is gleaned from facts acquired through years of researching the ups and downs of thousands of companies, to learn what works and why, and what definitely should be avoided in the business world. If you are in business or even contemplating going into business, then you must read this book. How To Keep Your Man: And Keep Him For Good Real Life Dramas - Volume One Darren G. Burton Written on June 13, 2008 Summary: Excellent Nutshell review - This is an excellent book. Great insights and ways of thinking about being better than just good. Very motivating and a must read for every manager. |
