The Power of Culture: An Economist Edge Book (The Economist Edge Series) by Laura Hamill
All organizations have a culture, whether they acknowledge it or not—and whether it’s helping or hindering them. Get it right, and culture can be a positive force for good. Get it wrong, and culture can be a negative force, becoming toxic and undermining performance and reputations. In short, culture matters. Organizational culture, though, can be a tricky thing to understand and master. The Power of Culture tackles this head-on, exploring what culture is, and why it matters; how it needs to be aligned with strategy and values; and how to understand it, change it, and make it a reality.

Never Lead Alone: 10 Shifts from Leadership to Teamship by Keith Ferrazzi
In today’s volatile, fast-paced, and decentralized business environment, even the most talented leaders can’t succeed alone—they need to mobilize the full potential of the team.
The world’s highest-performing organizations understand they need more than leadership to win—they need teamship. Teamship is a profound shift from today’s hierarchical model to sharing the load among a team that elevates one another and the organization to achieve exponential results.
“You can’t think well without writing well, and you can’t write well without reading well. And I mean that last “well” in both senses. You have to be good at reading, and read good things.”
— Paul Graham, Y Combinator co-founder
