Interesting Stuff...

Strategy un-mystifiedHenry Mintzberg is one of the most famous and respected management gurus of the 20th century.  In this document, he, in his simple way, de-mystifies strategy. 

Millionaire Mind: Mastering the Inner Game of Wealth.   This is a book by T. Harv Ecker which isn't as woo-woo as it sounds.  It offers practical exercises and insights into money, earning it, managing it and spending it.  I went to the Millionaire Mind weekend event and found it engaging and useful and I highly recommend it.  You can probably get free tickets to it if you buy his book.

Leadership Pipeline:  this is a book by Ram Charan (who also wrote "Execution" which was really marvelous).  It codifies the idea that to move through an organization up the management ladder, there are identifiable passages people must move through related to certain skill sets.  It can really help when you are trying to sort out if someone is ready to be promoted or not, and what you can do to move them forward.
