There’s nothing quite like opening up an inspirational book to get your creative business minds cranking. Here’s our second roundup of business management books we recommend taking a peak at that will benefit you and your business:
- The Lean Start Up by Eric Ries – “Rather than wasting time creating elaborate business plans, The Lean Startup offers entrepreneurs – in companies of all sizes – a way to test their vision continuously, to adapt and adjust before it’s too late. Ries provides a scientific approach to creating and managing successful startups in a age when companies need to innovate more than ever.”
- From Idea to Exit by Jeffrey Weber – “From Idea to Exit takes a more comprehensive approach, tackling the entire entrepreneurial journey from the initial seed idea through a well-planned exit strategy.

- The Art of the Start by Guy Kawasaki – “Whether you’re an aspiring entrepreneur, small-business owner, intrapreneur, or not-for-profit leader, there’s no shortage of advice on topics such as innovating, recruiting, fund raising, and branding. In fact, there are so many books, articles, websites, blogs, webinars, and conferences that many startups get paralyzed, or they focus on the wrong priorities and go broke before they succeed. “
