The Effective Executive - Book Recommendation



So - I'm going to recommend a book that I haven't yet finished....hope that's OK. Daniel gave me this book when I started here at Lodging Dynamics. Because of the timing, I have not yet read it. But, our summer of 100,000 pages has given me the motivation to get to it. I am over halfway through. It is great. Sure - it doesn't read like a thriller or an easy teen novel. But, the information is good and will hopefully help me be more effective.

To give you a preview - the book goes into detail on the following 5 practices: 1. Tracking your time; 2. Focusing on Results; 3. Build on Strengths; 4. Set Priorities; 5. Making Effective Decisions. 

It is helping me think more about what I do every day. I would like to think that it is making more efficient and more effective, but I guess that is yet to be seen.

  1. Way to post a review, Adam. Your choice just shows what a broad range of books there are. It seems that there is no area of existence that isn't covered by a book. Plus, this recommendation goes right along with Recommendation Week because Daniel recommended it to you in the first place. How nice.

  2. Inception Recommendation: recommending a book that was already recommended you by someone else. That's awesome!! Also, the people are mad that you aren't finished with the book you recommended.
