Recommend a book?

**Night Train** · 05-09-2008, 11:36 AM

My Boss who runs all of operations (Dining, Safety, Print & Mail, Building Maintenance, Conferences, etc) at our College has asked for a suggestion on a book that all of the directors of these areas could read together. We just finished a management book called GOOD TO GREAT, and many of us have read WHO MOVED MY CHEESE. I am wondering if you all have any recommendations for our group of department leaders? Here are some I found on Amazon but nothing is jumping out at me. Any thoughts?

Check out

www.daveramsey.com

I think that is the right link. There are a lot of reccomended reading lists. I think they have a full section on books for business/team building!

Good luck!

I have always liked "Fish". It is a relatively short book but is great for morale.

Depends what you want to get out of the book.

If you are into processes then "The Goal" by Eliyahu Goldratt is a good read.

If you want to find out what makes your customers and staff tick, then try "Its callled work for a reason" by Larry Winget. He is in your face, but the truth always hurts!!
