There’s a seemingly endless number of books on the market that offer you their own “revolutionary” theories and methodologies on how to become the leader of your dreams.

As an avid bookworm and leadership expert who has read most of the “best books,” let me just lay it out there: many of the most recommended leadership books won’t adequately prepare you for being the best leader for your business and team! Many of them are stuffy, outdated, and honestly don’t reflect the values of an impact-driven entrepreneur when it comes to leading with aligned purpose.

So, if you’ve ever wanted to know what my all-time favorite leadership books are, you’re in luck! I decided to make a list of my top 30 books that I’d recommend to any entrepreneur seeking to improve their leadership skills. And, if you’re wondering what to add to your Santa list… I’ll make that easy for you. Just click here or the green button below.

AND…. Here’s a sneak peek of 5 of the books from this list.*

*by Simon Sinek*

I’ve been a fan of Simon Sinek since the rough video Ted Talk of "the Golden Circles” that was the premise for his book, Start with Why. Then he wrote this beauty on how leaders help foster trust, cooperation, and motivation within their teams. Simon Sinek explores how many of today’s successful teams operate and shows you how you can apply these lessons to your own team-building practice starting with servant leadership.
