From CEOs to heads of HR, today’s leaders know the value of reading for personal and professional growth.

EBN asked ten top executives for the books that inspired them in areas like wellness, education and new perspectives around their business strategies. Whether leaders want to refresh their management skills, or have a more positive mindset and vision for the future, these books offer advice for grappling with today’s big challenges. 

“Rachel Pacheco’s book, ‘Bringing Up the Boss: Practical Lessons for New Managers’ reminds us that companies thrive because they have great leaders — and those leaders inspire and manage well whether in person, over Zoom calls, across different time zones, or in the face of constant change,” says Alex Newbold, chief administrative officer at Wellthy. “What a super useful guide for building managers of tomorrow, and ensuring that the managers of today have an arsenal of tools to help their teams succeed.”
