Ask DN: A book a month challenge - suggestions?

    I would really recommend reading Linchpin by Seth Godin, and anything written by Gary Vaynerchuck, even though both of them aren't specifically written about design. But about business, yes. Definitely.

      Hey Patrik, Thank you so much for the suggestions. The books look really great. Especially "Jab, jab, jab, Right Hook" by Gary Vaynerchuk but I think that it would be too high level for me at this point since I am not very much into business. I would slowly reach out to understanding the terminologies better and then add it on my bucket list

        The organisation, or collective, I'm part of actually classes Linchpin as a must-read essential book (together with 7 Habits by Stephen R. Covey). Much of what we do were built around it and in the competitive world we live in, it's a great book to read a few times.

        About Gary, the concept may look high level, but it's actually very very simple. If you feel you should ease into the book then you might want to look at his youtube channel (google, it's easy to find). It's great stuff really. He gives so much back to the people that I'd buy the book just to support him. Fantastic guy.
