The Book Club - Googler Style

So people in my team decided to start a book club. The books will be business related to start out with. So far it's starting to feel like school... but in a good way. I haven't had talk this stimulating since college at UCR.

Today was our first meeting and we discussed the first chapter of Built to Last: Successful Habits of Visionary Companies.

Before we started to talk about the book, we went around and talked about our favorite business-related books. Some are not completely business related, but you can draw concepts that apply to business. These books came up:

• Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-free productivity
  
• The One Minute Manager
