Coronavirus ‘Extended Spring Break’ Reading List



One of the most popular blog posts we do is recommended readings lists for the holidays or spring break for selling organization leaders.

With spring break approaching, we began assembling this spring break reading list — but that was quickly derailed with the coronavirus-triggered impact to business and personal life alike.

So whether you are looking for a reason to pile-up in the corner of the house to get a break from kids home from school on an extended spring break or you need a little “social distancing” — here are some recommendations I have personally read and hand-selected for you. Enjoy!

Crucial Conversations by Kerry Patterson, Joseph Grenny, et. al)

Crucial Conversations is the How to Talk so Kids Will Listen book for the business world. When there is a high-stake conversation to be had with a peer or an employee — or even a leader — you want to be sure you approach it in a fair, effective way that avoids anger or hurt feelings. You want to invoke positive change. And this book provides the strategy and tools to do so.
