Your Money and Your Brain - Jason Zweig
Our book of the month. A startling insight to the biology of our relationship with money and investing. A hardened financial journalist thoroughly researches how the architecture of the brain makes our investing minds tick. Bristling with research and examples, Zweig goes to the next level and advises us how we can counteract the vagaries of our reflexive and reflective minds to become better investors. Hail neuroeconomics! Your Money and Your Brain: Become a Smarter, More Successful Investor - the Neuroscience Way
Made to stick - Chip and Dan Heath
A delightful read bristling with examples on every page to make the process of communication easier for those communicating and for those who are listening. One of the very best books on any subject we have read. We have found value in every story and have applied the philosophy with great success. Made to Stick: Why Some Ideas Take Hold and Others Come Unstuck
The seven spiritual laws of success - Deepak Chopra
Eastern philosophy packaged in a digestible and hugely powerful form by the renowned Deepak Chopra. Seven laws, one for each day of the week. Synchronise the law you study each day with the Chopra centre and we will all benefit from the power of true mindfulness.

Freakonomics - Steven D. Levitt & Stephen I. Dubner
An unexpected book from an unexpected source. Economists study the accepted wisdom and explain the unexpected results. Why do teachers cheat in exams? And how? Why did the Ku Klux Klan disappear almost overnight? Should you take your children to the library? Why are you reading a book about economics? (Well, OK, they don't really answer that one!) We love books that change our perspective. Freakonomics: A Rogue Economist Explores the Hidden Side of Everything
Working globesmart - Ernest Gundling
A brilliant and practical exposition on working across borders. Cultural differences are often a barrier to working together, more often an excuse. Gundling codifies strategies for creating successful cross-cultural working and takes us to a new level of practical understanding of multi-national success. Every step is illustrated with examples to ensure we really get it. Working Globesmart: 12 People Skills for Doing Business Across Borders
Why men don't listen and women can't read maps - Allan and Barbara Pease
Does equality mean that men and women are the same? We hope not. The Pease's celebrate with a direct style and wonderful tongue-in-cheek humour the differences between men and women. We hope that once we understand these we will all enjoy being the men and women that we are, not what we think we should be. Why Men Don't Listen and Women Can't Read Maps: How We're Different and What to Do About It
The machine that changed the world - James P. Womack, Daniel Roos and Daniel T. Jones
Another great book on discontinuous thinking. The authors describe the creation, evolution and codification of what we now call Lean Thinking a revolutionary (or radically evolutionary) approach to manufacturing. There are great examples of how taking massive and unexpected action can create astonishing results. Just check out what they write about Porsche and you will get the picture. The Machine That Changed the World
Using your brain for a change - Richard Bandler
The father of NLP and no coaching library would be without a copy. Simple, brilliant and a must read. A transcript of Richard speaking and just as readable all the same. One of the themes Richard espouses is that once the mind knows something it cannot go back. If you read this book then you will have no excuses in the future.
The Dalai Lama's little book of wisdom - HH the Dalai Lama
The first of the four noble truths of Buddhism is that there is suffering. From a nation that that suffered for years HH the Dalai Lama knows this from personal experience. Another of the four noble truths is that there is a relief to suffering. This little book is such an easy read and yet is as profound as you can get. Give attention to even a fraction of the wisdom in this book and you will be destined to have a greater life. The Dalai Lama's Little Book of Wisdom
