Learn About New Books Before Anyone Else Does

Below are a few great places I've found to learn about the latest business and self-improvement books. Hopefully they will inspire you to pick up a book or 3 to improve your life and your world!

Fast Company's book club (http://www.fastcompany.com/bookclub)

Fast Company is one of my favorite magazines, they have a great website, and they do some great things for the latest and greatest books. They often will offer book excerpts and author interviews you can't get anywhere else.

800CEORead.com

A great site that offers all the latest business books. Go quickly to the "Keen Thinker" section and check it out. What's especially great about this site is there is a section for book excerpts on their blog, often done with comments by the author. And even better...there are podcasts here so you can listen to a 30 minute or so discussion about the book or about some other really interesting topic. Worth your time, for sure.

FirstLookBooks.com

A great service of Harper Collins, where they offer free looks at first books, if you qualify. Definitely worth at least checking out. My first book from them was Freakonomics, and I must say, I was not disappointed. Great stuff!

Your local bookseller - Ask her or him what they're reading, what they've noticed has sold, or what they think about the latest stuff. They spend a lot more of their time in the bookstore than you do, so why wouldn't they have some valuable insight?

Amazon.com - Best Sellers or What's New sections

Amazon really is the biggest book seller, and though you may not find the latest and greatest, you will definitely find some great books here at a great price.

bloglines.com

(search for leadership or self-improvement books) Read what the bloggers are talking about, and maybe sign up for a feed or 50. I have found so many fantastic books with my FREE bloglines subscription, and I am able to quickly read through thousands of postings all in one spot.

New York Times Best Seller List - A great resource to see what others are reading, although I would recommend my other resources first.

Phil Gerbyshak leads a team of people as manager of an IT Help Desk in Milwaukee, WI, and finds that sharing his knowledge is a crucial component for success as a leader and as a person. Phil's personal philosophy is paraphrased from Tim Sanders' fantastic book Love is the Killer App: "Share your knowledge, your network, and your love. The rest will follow." Feel free to contact Phil at http://makeitgreat.org or call 414.640.7445 anytime.
