Resources for Personal Development
I've really tried to invest in personal development over the last couple years of stepping into a leadership position and wondered what resources (Books/Websites/Podcasts/Other) you all use for personal development. And maybe as people share things, I can add them to the OP.
Podcasts: EntreLeadership Podcast Tim Ferriss Podcast Jocko Willink Podcast Books: The Power of Habit by Charles Duhigg Grit by Angela Duckworth Never Go Back by Dr. Henry Cloud 12 Rules for Life by Dr. Jordan Peterson 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Covey The Lean Startup by Eric Ries The Subtle Art of Not Giving a **** by Manson How Successful People Lead by Maxwell The 21 IRREFUABLE LAWS OF LEADERSHIP By John Maxwell The Slight Edge by Olson Competing on Analytics: The New Science of Winning (Davenport, T. and Harris, J.) Brilliant or Blunder: 6 Ways Leaders Navigate Uncertainty, Opportunity, and Complexity (Lippitt, M.) No Excuses!: The Power of Self Discipline (Tracy, B.) The Lean Turnaround (Burne, A.) Deep Work by Cal Newport Spiral Dynamics by Don Beck Napoleon Hill "Think and Grow Rich" Edward L. DeciWhy "We Do What We Do: Understanding Self-Motivation" "Linchpin" by Seth Godin "Set for Life" Scott Trench "The Willpower Instinct" by McGonigal Tribes, Purple Cow and The Dip (Godin). "The War of Art" and "Turning Pro" Steven Pressfields Extreme Ownership by Jocko Willink The 5 Dysfunctions of a Team (Lencioni) Dale Carnegie's "How to Win Friends and Influence People" Websites/Apps: Flipboard (Allows you to customize stories, creating a personal "magazine" EveryDollar (Dave Ramsey's Budgeting website) Duolingo (Trying to become bi-lingual.) Kansas Leadership Center (https://kansasleadershipcenter.org) Catalyst Leader (http://www.catalystleader.com) rsdfreetour on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/user/rsdfreetour Other: Prager University (Yeah, I'm a conservative, but their videos are outstanding IMO) I'll probably think of more and add later, but these came to mind. |
Check out the stuff from the Kansas Leadership Center. Seriously good stuff.

I’ve been through a lot of this stuff and I’d recommend it.
Also read The Slight Edge by Jeff Olson. Pretty solid one IMO. |
What kind of leadership role do you have?
In college organizational behavior was particularly interesting most notably motivation theories. I’m sure there are some free literatures out there on the subject matter. |
I'll add a few...
Competing on Analytics: The New Science of Winning (Davenport, T. and Harris, J.) Brilliant or Blunder: 6 Ways Leaders Navigate Uncertainty, Opportunity, and Complexity (Lippitt, M.) No Excuses!: The Power of Self Discipline (Tracy, B.) The Lean Turnaround (Burne, A.) |

Let me give you two books nobody will recommend. And when it comes to your work, and leading/understanding people they are the best I’ve read. And I have read a ton.
Deep Work by Cal Newport Spiral Dynamics by Don Beck The first one is an easy read. The 2nd is a text book but holy shit you will see people in a whole new and incredible way when you’re done. |
Awesome stuff so far...I'll update the OP. BTW, to answer Buehler's Q, I am a pastor and do some other community leadership stuff...so I also have a lot of spiritual development stuff I could post too if anyone's interested.
