BOOKS
So You Want To Talk About Race
By Ijeoma Oluo
While talking about race is necessary to making a more equitable world for all, I often wish this were required reading for people leaders before doing so.
Building a StoryBrand
By Donald Miller
My go-to book for anyone with a creative streak who wants to up-level their branding and messaging.
The Challenger Sale
By Mathew Dixon, Brent Adamson
No sales framework applies to every situation, but as they say, you’ve got to learn the rules like a master to bend them like an artist.
FAIR SHARES
By Pippa Goodhart
I’m a mom, so, here’s one of my favorite children’s books. The book helps teach children the difference between equity and equality. Many adults also struggle with this concept and I recommend it for them, too.
Quiet: The Power of Introverts
By Susan Cain
A must-read for introverts or or anyone who loves an introvert. Note: I like to think of extraversion as a spectrum rather than the binary “extravert” or “introvert”, but, Cain and most use those terms so I follow suit here.
Indistractable
By Nir Eyal
This book stands out from other habit-forming/breaking books because it helps those who struggle with social media and tech-based distractions specifically.
