Books that share insights from successful companies can be a valuable resource for anyone looking to learn from others' experiences and apply those lessons to their own business ventures. By examining case studies and real-world examples, you can gain a deeper understanding of what makes successful companies tick, and use that knowledge to inform your own strategies and decision-making.
Very good contribution! 👍
This is a fantastic question!
For what it's worth if you haven't read it, I recommend checking out "Good to Great" by Jim Collins!
This wonderful book presents the findings of a five-year study by a research team. They identified public companies that had achieved consistent success after years of mediocre performance and isolated/identified the factors that differentiated those companies from their lackluster competitors
It goes really deep on what differentiates truly great companies and I refer to it often as a tool for what to focus on in my own company!
Hope this helps! Looking to add many of these to my list too!
@adamthecreator I think that I came across that book. I like these genres. What is your company?
Thank you for sharing
Will def check some of these out! Mostly likely the Wal-Mart one.
@richard_gao2 Good choice. Do you have any other favorite books about business? 🙂
if I've to choose just one book it would be shoe dog
much recommended.
Thank you for the nice suggestions. I'm definitely looking forward to reading🤗
@buse_basar Which of all of those businesses are appealing to you the most? 🙂
@busmark_w_nika I'm curious about all of them, but most of all, Apple,Google, Instagram, Mc Donald quartet excites me and makes me curious.
Nika - thanks for sharing the list. This is a great list, I've learned a lot from Zero to one (Peter Thiel) and Behind the cloud (Marc Benioff).
@shivam_mahajan1 Also, Richard Branson is such an inspiration. I would recommend his book "Losing Virginity" as well. 🙂
Brilliant! Thank you for sharing.
Just finished Shoe Dog last week and then watched ‘Air’ in cinema. For anyone who hasn’t watched it yet, go watch it now!!!!
Amazing list! For me the best is Zappos: Delivering Happiness!
