Communication in the workplace can easily falter, which creates a domino effect of frustration and confusion for future projects and tasks. Make discussions and understanding clear and precise with this book from Michael Hyatt.

3. The Tipping Point by Malcolm Gladwell

4. The 21 Most Powerful Minutes in a Leader’s Day by John Maxwell
Not every man is born a leader, but every man can become a leader by learning and sharpening a collection of skills. Maxwell’s book provides a daily plan to help you nurture those skills to better your life spiritually, personally and professionally.
5. Tribes: We Need You to Lead Us by Seth Godin
It’s human nature to seek out groups of those who share our beliefs, be they religious, ethnic, economic, political, or even musical. These tribes we long to be a part of don’t come with leadership naturally, so it’s up to the people with a passion to make a difference and lead. Godin’s book demystifies the process of rallying employees, customers, investors, and more around an idea.
