I've got more to say, but I made this one #10 because whenever I give a lecture and mention books, people don't take me seriously.
Let me imagine Tommy in the audience, thinking, "Hmm... this is a good lecture, but everything he's saying is basically common sense and I think I can more or less handle this."
OK, Tommy, you got me. A lot of this stuff comes straight from "Duh, So". Everybody has some basic skills in interpersonal relations and organization. But when your company is at stake, do you really want to wing it?
If your company is important to you, you owe it to yourself to buy at least one of these books — I would recommend the 7 Habits book if I could only choose one — and you can always return it if you end up knowing everything.
I knew a guy in college who wouldn't let me loan him a book on business plans and he wrote a truly awful one. His company tanked, along with the money his parents had given him for it. Don't let this happen to you by thinking you know everything already.
Anyway, sorry to rant. This is a list of some really great books. Hopefully I've convinced you to give one a shot.
