As we start 2014, take a few moments to consider some of the best business/management/leadership books of 2013. These ten lists will guide you to many of the top titles of the year, including ones that placed on a variety of lists, such as Sheryl Sandberg’s Lean In: Women, Work and the Will to Lead; Brad Stone’s The Everything Store: Jeff Bezos and the Age of Amazon; Daniel Pink’s To Sell Is Human: The Surprising Truth About Moving Others; Doris Kearns Goodwin’s The Bully Pulpit: Theodore Roosevelt, William Howard Taft, and the Golden Age of Journalism ; and two books from Wharton professors, Adam Grant’s Give and Take: A Revolutionary Approach to Success; and Jonah Berger’s Contagious: Why Things Catch On.
As a bonus, check out Todd Sattersten’s The 50 Best Business Books of the Past Five Years. Todd is the co-author of The 100 Best Business Books of All Time: What They Say, Why They Matter, and How They Can Help You, with Jack Covert, founder of 800ceoread, which has published its own Bestsellers of 2013 list.
