Yup. These are exactly the sort of exec speak that I expect up-and-coming managers read. They aren't exactly fads but nor are they longstanding respected works. Most will probably still be read in a couple years, but very few will survive twenty. Where are the great works that will improve a person's written language? Where are the seminal works on market theory? Where are the histories? My kingdom for an executive who can string together a cohesive paragraph.
- noddingham 5y agoYour comment makes it sound like you're aware of those works that you wish executives would read. Would you mind sharing some?
- loughnane 5y agoNot OP but I share their sentiment. In my estimation such a reading list should include: - high output management, grove - managing oneself, drucker - tech revolutions and financial capital, perez - measure what matters, doerr (maybe… as an addendum to high output management)
