I just finished reading Steve Pavlina’s book Personal Development for Smart People, and I really enjoyed it. It was jam packed full of simple but not easy steps on how to improve all aspects of your life.
It was divided into 2 sections: Fundamental Principles and Practical Application. It took me a long time to get […]
I got a copy of What To Do When You Become The Boss a few months back, but I didn’t review it because I somehow lost it in my pile of books. Thankfully Bob Selden, the author of this book, reached back out to me to ask about my review. I sheepishly admitted I […]
Recently I got a review copy of the audiobook It’s Our Ship by D. Michael Abrashoff. I really enjoyed it, as Mike read his own book, and I always enjoy hearing books read by their author. I got an unabridged copy, which I searched high and low to share a link to but I couldn’t […]

Does your workplace produce […]
I recently finished listening to 3 Signs of a Miserable Job by Pat Lencioni. It’s another book like Lencioni’s other books (5 Dysfunctions of a Team, Silos and Turf Wars, Death by Meeting and 5 Temptations of a CEO, all also really well done) in that it’s told as a fable. For me, that makes […]
Thought it might be nice to share with you a few of the books I’m thinking of reading, to give you a preview of some of the reviews I’ll be sharing soon at Slacker Manager, and to ask you which one(s) seem to resonate most with you.
The Dream Manager by Matthew Kelly - I love […]

“Recent research shows that 70% of white collar workers are unhappy with their jobs, ironically they are spending an increasing amount of time working.”
~Dan Miller, 48 Days to the Work You Love
If you are not satisfied with your current employment situation, then I highly recommend this book. Miller has laid out some easy-to-follow steps that […]
I’ve been remiss in whipping up this review. I’ve been reading a crazy hodgepodge assortment of books lately, only some are business-related, and I forgot to post this one. Which is a bummer because I could’ve convinced you to read it a couple of months ago.
I loved Berkun’s last book, The Art of Project Management, […]
There’s this thing about reading your favorite columnists: when they write books you can be pretty confident that you’re gonna enjoy the read. This has been true for me with Thomas Friedman, Malcolm Gladwell and now with Penelope Trunk.
Penelope is a columnist with the Boston Globe (read her column here and her blog here) and […]
Just a quick pointer as a follow up to the previous post about Kiss Theory Goodbye: SmartLemming has a great interview with Bob Prosen over here. If I didn’t already convince you to pick up this book, this interview will probably close the deal. Be sure to check out all the excellent extra resources at […]
Wow. This is a really good book. This is a book that I got from the publisher–I get offered books on a regular basis and I turn down about as many as I accept. I was a little skeptical and almost didn’t accept this one. The marketing materials pitched the book as the logical successor […]
I just wrote a book review on The Omnivore’s Dilemma over at Joyful Jubilant Learning. There are a TON of good reviews to read over there. This Shelfari page shows all the books that are getting reviewed, and this page is where you can keep track of the reviews.
There are a lot of business […]
I wrote earlier about this book, and the MarketingProfs book group discussion about it. The discussion starts here, if you’re a MarketingProfs member.
When I wrote the first post about this book, I was really taken with it. I still am, but my enthusiasm is a little bit tempered now. I wasn’t exactly sure what […]
