5 leadership books Meetup's CEO read this year — and what they taught him about running a company
For a roadmap for effective, kind leadership and smart decision-making, he shares 5 book recommendations.
Here are the top five leadership books I read in 2022 and why I found each one particularly enriching.I often struggled with the need to be liked. And while that challenge served me well in rising to a CEO by prioritizing relationships, it was also one of my greatest leadership flaws. An example: In the interest of comforting my team after a layoff, I made a guarantee of no further layoffs that I later had to retract, which jeopardized the trust my team had in me.
On a personal level, I often find myself disheartened and overwhelmed with global and societal challenges. After reading, I learned how seemingly small acts can make a world of difference in communities. This book motivated me to act. I've often struggled with whether being a nice leader is a demonstration of weakness. Venture capital pioneer Alan Patricof serves as a role model in his ability to lead while maintaining kindness and integrity over six decades.
