30 de August de 2022
Hello there, September! This is a month for setting goals, for reinvention and absolute motivation. A little push to help us keep moving forwards is always more than welcomed. That’s why we want to introduce you to some allies for this new season. In this post we’ll recommend 10 good reads for personal and professional growth that will help you get to the end of this new year in the best way possible. But, hey, you may also find your future specialisation in these texts!
The 4-Hour Work Week
Tim Ferriss
Tired of working 8 hours a day?
In his book, Tim Ferriss describes what many would call the magic formula for happiness — a must read for this 2022. A critique of the current labour system that makes us work 40 weekly hours in which the author proposes new methods to work less hours and achieve the same level of productivity and revenue. Although it doesn’t apply to every profile, this narrative piece invites us to reflect and try, so as not to have to wait for retirement in order to enjoy the true meaning of life.
The Personal MBA
Josh Kaufman
Beyond the academic degree.
Kaufman takes a step beyond the traditional academic models of business schools. In his book, he proposes new business management formulas. Being honest, it’s really hard to summarise in just one book what an MBA can teach students. However, this manual does constitute an ideal complement to the educational material that we can get from a master’s. Kaufman message can be summed up into the idea that leaders create themselves, because it’s not always enough to attend a business school in order to succeed in the world of business.
The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People
Stephen Covey
Do you know how to set priorities when it comes to planning out your goals?
This personal development manual is a priceless asset for those who lack an action plan or who are failing to design one. Aimed at potential entrepreneurs, it has inspired great leaders and executives in the business world. Stephen Covey tells us about 7 fundamental habits that establish synergies and continuous renovation. Readers describe it as a clear cookbook for business mood.
Purple Cow
Seth Godin
A market in constant evolution.
More marketing-oriented, Seth Godin’s book invites us to reinvent ourselves in our sector. In a globalised advertising universe, overexploited and busy, marketing forces us to develop more disruptive formulas. So, in the manifested metaphor on which the title is built, he proposes launching new marketing lines, groundbreaking and thrilling, more than what we’re used to consuming.
The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari
Robin S. Sharma
What is it that really helps you increase your personal wellbeing?
Maybe the most literary and fantastic on the list, but it’s a true growth and personal renewal statement in the form of philosophical illumination. Robin Sarma, author of other books that have been praised and sold all across the world, encourages us to improve our quality of life focusing on the search for inner harmony; and he does so through the story of a successful lawyer who decided to leave everything behind in order to find a fulfilling life journey.
Impostor Syndrome
Elisabeth Cadoche and Anne de Montarlot
How to face antiquated conservative prejudices.
“Why do women still not trust themselves?” is the question that this book presents us with and which the two authors try to find an answer to. The lack of confidence and its effect on professional development is a reality that, still today, continues to damage the professional career of many women. This book presents us with tools for those women to leave behind the feeling of fraud and just good luck in order to reach professional success.
What Would Google Do?
Jeff Jarvis
Some mentors just can’t be overlooked.
This book’s lesson revolves around the success of one of the companies with the greatest growth in recent history. Google is an unprecedented management and projection example and, for that, Jarvis uncovers 40 rules that every company should follow. Google’s axioms may not be useful for every kind of business person, but the strategic concepts exposed by Jarvis can be followed by any project at a given point. You should miss the chance to read this exemplary book.
