日前,摩根大通發(fā)布了今年夏天的讀書清單。 這份清單當(dāng)中,包含了10本非小說(shuō)類圖書,雖然有些書偏向于商業(yè)方向,但閱讀受眾卻不僅限于商業(yè)人士,很多書涉及了培養(yǎng)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)力和團(tuán)隊(duì)意識(shí)等方面。 除此之外,清單中還包含了關(guān)于歷史、藝術(shù)、旅行和文化的圖書。 01 大戰(zhàn)略 On Grand Strategy 關(guān)鍵詞:商業(yè)、經(jīng)濟(jì)、歷史、人物 作者:John Lewis Gaddis Professor John Lewis Gaddis offers his unique assessment of global strategic thinkers throughout history, exploring how their personalities, beliefs and intellects informed their key choices. 約翰·路易斯·加迪斯教授對(duì)全球的戰(zhàn)略思想家進(jìn)行了獨(dú)特的評(píng)價(jià),探究他們的個(gè)性、信仰和智力是如何影響他們的關(guān)鍵選擇的。 Through expert analysis of past leaders' glorious successes and grand failures, this book provides lessons for decision makers in any field, as well as for those seeking a greater understanding of the choices that led to our world today. 通過(guò)對(duì)這些領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者的輝煌成就和重大失敗的專業(yè)分析,不管你在何種領(lǐng)域,這本書都能幫助決策者們和那些尋求對(duì)希望改變世界的人提供了經(jīng)驗(yàn)。 02 The Space Barons: Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and the Quest to Colonize the Cosmos 《太空巨頭:伊隆·馬斯克、杰夫·貝索斯和占領(lǐng)宇宙的征程》 關(guān)鍵詞:人物、經(jīng)濟(jì)、歷史 作者:Christian Davenport 這是一個(gè)關(guān)于美國(guó)百億身家的企業(yè)家用他們自己的財(cái)富復(fù)興美國(guó)太空項(xiàng)目的故事。在尼爾·阿姆斯特朗登陸月球半個(gè)世紀(jì)之后,美國(guó)政府已沒(méi)有載人航天項(xiàng)目。 但是,伊隆·馬斯克、杰夫·貝索斯以及之前的理查德·布萊德森和保羅·艾倫正在用硅谷風(fēng)格的創(chuàng)新技術(shù),大幅降低太空航行的成本,將人類送到美國(guó)國(guó)家航空航天局(NASA)未曾到達(dá)的地方。 While it is too soon to tell who will ultimately dominate a still-emerging industry, The Space Barons proves that a host of cutting-edge business ideas will likely result from ongoing efforts to conquer the stars. 盡管現(xiàn)在斷言誰(shuí)將最終主宰這個(gè)仍在崛起的產(chǎn)業(yè)還為時(shí)過(guò)早,但航天巨頭們證明,一系列尖端商業(yè)理念源自于對(duì)征服宇宙欲望并付出不斷的努力。 03 影響力引擎:非營(yíng)利部門的戰(zhàn)略領(lǐng)導(dǎo)力要素 Engine of Impact: Essentials of Strategic Leadership in the Nonprofit Sector 關(guān)鍵詞:商業(yè)、職場(chǎng)、領(lǐng)導(dǎo)力 作者:William F.

slavery who went on to become titans of American industry. 《黑色財(cái)富》展示了6個(gè)出身奴隸的人,他們后來(lái)成為了美國(guó)工業(yè)巨頭的故事。 As told here in unforgettable detail, their journeys toward financial success are
