The CUInsight Experience podcast: Season 3 book list
“The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go.” - Dr. Seuss
One question I’ve been asked since starting The CUInsight Experience podcast in January of 2019 is “where can I find a list of the books mentioned on the show?” Ask and you shall receive. Below is the list of every book recommended or talked about on the podcast with a link to Amazon for your purchasing pleasure. We will keep this list up-to-date with each guest.
There have been a few that received multiple mentions and would be a good starting point to build your reading list; The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen Covey, Dare to Lead by Brené Brown, Start with Why by Simon Sinek, and Good to Great by Jim Collins. I would personally add Let My People Go Surfing by Yvon Chouinard to the list too.
A simple google search in the future of “The CUInsight Experience podcast: Book list” will have your next book recommendation at your fingertips and Amazon will deliver to your door in a day or two. Enjoy!
