5 Books Leaders Should Read In October 2023

Books are a great way to consume a lot of information quickly. The authors who have written these books have poured their blood, sweat, and tears into them, creating something special.

But why does that matter?

It matters because books contain years of experience you don’t have to experience. You get to understand what happened in someone else’s life, what they did, and how it changed their lives and others.

You get all the experience with little to no trials on your end. It’s one of the reasons I continue to bring you a new list of books every month.

Get ready, here comes your next list of books leaders should read.

Today, I’m bringing you the best of the bunch I listened to. I hope you’re ready to expand your library, as these books will change your leadership and life if you let them.

We’re halfway through summer and that means plenty of vacations and beach days are yet to happen. If you’re blessed to live in a beach town such as mine or along the coasts, you know what I’m talking about.

This means you need new book recommendations! It’s something I like to bring to you because it means you get the best books to add to your list. 

August won’t be any different. Here are five great leadership books to consider reading in August 2023.

5 Leadership Books To Read In June 2023

Even though I believe movies and entertainment are great way to grow your leadership skills, I still want to bring you the best books to increase your leadership knowledge. It’s one of the forms of communication that has long been successful in training leaders.

It’s also one of the reasons I bring you these lists every month. I want you to be consuming great content that will stretch you as a leader. 

With books, you get to dive into the thoughts of current and past leaders. Their wisdom is passed onto you through their works. Why not read them?

This month, I plan to focus on more current books. These leadership books will have been released within the past couple of years.
