My favorite has always been How to Win Friends and Influence People: Dale Carnegie.
I still pick it up from time to time and re-read it. I wish a few of the young more aggressive real estate agents in the Phoenix area would read it. I am not sure they would make more money, but they would be better agents.

I am not reading any business books - but I am reading & re-reading a few metaphysical books. Those can also help with business, though.
I'm also reading a 550 page course manual. That's why I need the spiritual guidance! LOL!

Someone else just askedthis question the other day and on FB I have been seeing this question a lot lately. Must be the time of the year to plan our 2018 reading library.
How to Win Friends and Influence People: Dale Carnegie.
I read this book once a quarter or at least 3 times per year.
The others are:
Think and Grow Rich, by Napolean Hill, the original version
As A Man Thinketh
PreSuasion by Dr. Robert Cialdini
and his other book, Influence, the art of persuasion.
The Art of War by Sun Tzu ( original translation)
and of course The Bible.
Gary Keller's books are great for realtors.

For the real estate business, I strongly recommend "The Millionaire Agent" Gary Keller and "the real estate agent redefined" by jim jaeckels .... I also recommend these books on sales "The Greatest Salesman in the World" Og Mandino --- "Secrets of Closing the Sale" Zig Ziglar
Finally, I recommend "the servant leader" Ken Blanchard is a great book with shows an unconventional approach to leadership.

Seen the list and there are a lot of books. I tend to go more into neuro-science like Unconscious Branding.

I do not read, but I listen to books, podcats, lectures every day 1-2 hours min( especially when I drive, and I drive a lot).
My fav words of Will Smith for his daily routine: ''read and run''. Do every day something for your brain and body to grow.

I'm not sure who recommended those as the "top" books for business. I don't recognize a single one of them.
I'm currently reading "How To Win Friends and Influence People". I prefer books that are time-tested.

"...the top 28 books for business....'
On my list would be any book that left a nugget of gold behind.
I like the deep dive into how money works or into neuro-linguistic programming. Then the 'Sit, walk, stand' simplicity of choosing.
Or even the eye-opening reality of the broken hallelujah.
Each one contributes to how I treat others and my understanding of their action. All of these are important regarding business.
The Glass Castle was last book read that is a flagship of the disaster of good intentions. Good ideas without action is no idea at all.
The book not yet written that I intend to read is "Common Ground in Uncommon Times." I imagine this must address the prevailing 'enemy' complex that is behind all the rhetoric. How to make safe space and Shepard in intelligent discussion of what is shared in common. When what we have in common displaces or differences, the fear of our enemy evaporates.

Sharon Kowitz The first book I ever read related to business was "Think And Grow Rich" by Napoleon Hill. "The Greatest Salesman In The World" is also a good one or anything else by Og Mandino.

I stopped reading business books years ago (after 45+ years in the business world I'm pretty much over anything that smacks of self-help)... the best I ever read was Endless Referrals by Bob Burg.

I appreciate audiobiographs. I find I always learn something from people who have led extraordinary lives or overcome extraordinary difficulties.
