Throughout my experience as a certified executive coach, I’ve read a long list of books with the goal of improving myself. Now, I also have an extensive list of the best books for business management and personal improvement that I often recommend to my executive and leadership coaching clients. The best business books are ones that encourage the reader to be introspective and identify their own areas for opportunity, then provide tactics to improve those areas, and many on this list do just that.
