6 Inspirational business books not to miss

AppSumo is giving away a package of what they call "The Top 40 books for Entrepreneurs". Yes, it's one of those AppSumo stunts, but still, the list is not a bad one. There's quite a few books that made me think and some of them even helped me to optimize the way I work. A short while ago I was working on a new project with a small group of students. I had connected my laptop to a large screen and after a little while they asked me to slow down. "How do you do that?" came up quite a few times. Well... I learned from the best. For most people this is not the busiest time of the year, so it's a great time to read a book. Where to start... My favorites from the list (in no particular order):

• Richard Branson - all books - for the inspiration!
• Made To Stick - Chip & Dan Heath - for the SUCCESS approach
• Gary Vaynerchuck - maybe even better to watch his Inc500 speech (I add it below, it's an hour long, but it is really, really good) but the books are great too - for his person and his attitude to business
• Dan Pink - A Whole New Mind (well, this one is not actually on the list, but get it anyway) - because it is good news for all creative people
• Seth Godin - read everything and subscribe to his blog - for his correct analysis of things
• David Allen - Getting things Done - to get... everything done you planned after reading all the previous books...
