What are great books on leadership?

 Choosing the perfect leadership book really depends on what you're looking for. To give you the best recommendations, I need a little more information about what aspects of leadership interest you the most.

Here are some questions to consider:

• What kind of leadership role are you in or interested in? (e.g., business, team management, non-profit, etc.)
• What are your biggest leadership challenges right now? (e.g., communication, motivation, decision-making, etc.)
• What leadership styles do you find most inspiring? (e.g., collaborative, authoritative, servant leadership, etc.)
• Are you looking for practical tips and strategies, or more theoretical and philosophical insights?

Once you have a better sense of what you're looking for, I can provide you with some personalized recommendations.

In the meantime, here are a few general recommendations that are often considered great leadership books:

Classics:

• The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen Covey: This timeless book lays out principles for personal and professional success, including self-awareness, integrity, and putting first things first.
• Good to Great by Jim Collins: This research-based book explores what makes companies make the leap from good to great, focusing on factors like leadership, culture, and strategy.
• Start with Why by Simon Sinek: This book emphasizes the importance of having a clear purpose and communicating it effectively to inspire others.

Modern favorites:

• Dare to Lead by Brené Brown: This book encourages leaders to be vulnerable and authentic, and to build trust with their teams.
• Extreme Ownership by Jocko Willink and Leif Babin: This book shares leadership lessons from the authors' experiences as Navy SEALs, emphasizing taking responsibility and ownership.
• Primal Leadership by Daniel Goleman: This book explores the importance of emotional intelligence in leadership, including self-awareness, empathy, and motivation.

These are just a few ideas to get you started. Once you tell me a bit more about what you're looking for, I can give you some more specific recommendations.

I hope this helps!
