Ask HN: What are some amazing business books to read?
2 comments
Re bio's Founders at Work was a pretty interesting read. A non-bio, but must read for dealing with other people in general is 48 laws of power, its historically entertaining, and pertinent.
Getting Real
Rework
The Dream by Gurbaksh Chahal (motivational, not instructional)
Business Model Generation
The Lean Startup
Delivering Happiness
I want to learn from the greatest business people and I don't want to have to re-invent the wheel myself.
I am a software engineer and I already had a startup experience of my own (and I am currently working at another one in SF) -- so I am not exactly a beginner.
I am really interested in books where the writer is talking about why certain tech businesses failed or succeeded. (I'd also be interested in biographies of great business leaders). Do you know any such books?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
