Amazon's books editors have announced their "2011 Best Books of the Year So Far" list. I don't recall them putting out a mid-year list in the past, but it's a great idea and they've picked some very worthy titles. Their top ten in the Business & Investing category are:
Onward: How Starbucks Fought for Its Life without Losing Its Soul by Howard Schultz, Rodale Press
Enchantment: The Art of Changing Hearts, Minds, and Actions by Guy Kawasaki, Portfolio
Tribal Leadership: Leveraging Natural Groups to Build a Thriving Organization by David Logan, John King & Halee Fischer-Wright, Harper Paperbacks (the paperback release of the authors' 2008 book)
In The Plex: How Google Thinks, Works, and Shapes Our Lives by Steven Levy, Simon & Schuster
Poke the Box by Seth Godin, The Domino Project - Powered by Amazon
Disciplined Dreaming: A Proven System to Drive Breakthrough Creativity by Josh Linkner, Jossey-Bass
We First: How Brands and Consumers Use Social Media to Build a Better World by Simon Mainwaring, Palgrave MacMillan
The Thank You Economy by Gary Vaynerchuk, HarperBusiness
Beyond Wealth: The Road Map to a Rich Life by Alexander Green, John Wiley & Sons
Endgame: The End of the Debt Supercycle and How It Changes Everything by John Mauldin, John Wiley & Sons
On that list, Disciplined Dreaming author Josh Linkner contributed a manifesto to the February issue of ChangeThis, and we have a manifesto from Simon Mainwaring coming on July 6.
