Summer Holiday Reads 2023

Here are our top recommendations for summer holiday reading in 2023

Holidays are a time to relax, but if like me they are also the only time you get to sit down with a book, then we recommend these three!

Checklists – Atul Gawande

I love this book! If you are looking to improve efficiency in any area of your business, read this book. The insights into surgical, aviation and building sectors, made it an engaging read, or listen as I did! I have created a checklist for key areas in FindaBiz to ensure we deliver consistently. You could even create a checklist to get the most out of your business networking.

Why has nobody told me this before? – Dr. Julie Smith

If you have been desperately craving your summer holiday and the stress in your business is mounting up to breaking point, this is the book for you. Simple, practical advice to change your mindset and boost your productivity. I also think if you are nervous about networking and want to give it a go, the chapter on overcoming fear, in this case of heights, would be a great place to start!

Good to Great – Jim Collins

This one is for the business nerds like me! An in-depth analysis of 28 companies, looking at how they outstripped their industry or competition to achieve extraordinary success. The perfect read for a business leader or someone planning to start building their team! I like the chapter “First Who …. then What”, which talks about surrounding yourself with the right team, which I think extends to your business network! What do you think? Have you read any of these already? Or are you going to pack them in your suitcase this summer?
