So I am pretty sure that your list already includes "Love is the Killer App" and the "Like-Ability Factor."&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Your Blog style is very similar to the thought process of Chris Anderson's "Long Tail Theory."

I didn't consider this to be a business book when I started reading it, but I have found it to be extremely when I am required to manage or work on a team. &lt;-- Especially, a team of equals.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Other favorites include "Magnetic Services" by Chip Bell; "Blink" by Malcolm Gladwell; "Primal Leadership" by Daniel Goleman; and "The Wisdom of Crowds" by James Surowiecki.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Love &amp; Soul Always, Kay</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2570333021319048714/3713105734581767709/comments/default/7776932914366150903'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2570333021319048714/3713105734581767709/comments/default/7776932914366150903'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.thinksplendid.com/2008/03/reading-and-success-of-your-business.html?showComment=1207002180000#c7776932914366150903' title=''/><author><name>kawania</name><uri>http://profile.typekey.com/kawania/</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img1.blogblog.com/img/openid16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.thinksplendid.com/2008/03/reading-and-success-of-your-business.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2570333021319048714.post-3713105734581767709' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2570333021319048714/posts/default/3713105734581767709' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-706764462'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2570333021319048714.post-6650118367134400514</id><published>2008-03-23T10:24:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2008-03-23T10:24:00.000-04:00</updated><title type='text'>I really enjoyed Winning by Jack Welch.
