Hey all! I'm thinking of venturing into starting and owning my own business and was wondering if you wonderful people have any book recommendations that would help me? Thank you in advance!
I am not a huge fan books on these topics. However, two books that came highly recommended to me (that I subsequently didn't read) were "start with why" and "traction"
A company I worked for startup that used the principles in traction and it had some value. My brother recently started a business and I think he would benefit from some of the principles. I did not like all of it though, to say the least.
Absolutely! Starting your own business is an exciting journey. Here are some book recommendations to help you along the way:

"Good to Great: Why Some Companies Make the Leap... and Others Don't" by Jim Collins: This book delves into the factors that differentiate great companies from merely good ones, offering valuable lessons for aspiring business owners.
