14 CEOs with their Summer Reading Lists – a Chart (from McKinsey)


McKinsey asked 14 CEOs what they will be reading in coming months. I’ve created a chart to peruse the list. Note: the #1 book for the summer is The Seventh Sense by Joshua Cooper Ramo, named by four different CEOs. No other book was named twice. It is definitely a book worth reading.

From the article from McKinsey:

The slightly lazier days of summer are upon the northern hemisphere, with beach vacations beckoning. South of the equator, temperatures are dipping and cozy weekends lie ahead. So what books will corporate leaders be reading in the coming months?

My apology for the small print. And, I only included the titles in the chart, without subtitles, or authors names. Click over to the article for full titles with subtitles, authors, and publishers for each book.

Yes, this is small print — sorry.
