Top 10 Must Read Books For Entrepreneurs In 2022
Being an entrepreneur is no simple task. There are both good and bad moments. Even while starting a business requires a tremendous amount of labour, if everything goes according to plan, the rewards are equal in measure, and the joy of accomplishing such incredible tasks is what keeps people starting businesses. Here is a list of the 10 books we believe every entrepreneur should read.
1. Bhaag
Author: Ganesh V.
Bhaag tells the stories of 11 extremely driven student entrepreneurs and gives an overview of student entrepreneurship in India. The reader is taken through the twists and turns in the lives of entrepreneurs, the mistakes they make, how they came up with the business concept, the difficulties and accomplishments there on, the current status of the company, and plans for the future, even though each story differs in its challenges and the key to success.
2. Connect the Dots
Author: Rashmi Bansal
The narrative of 20 entrepreneurs who launched their own businesses despite not having a business school degree is told in the book Connect the Dots. These people demonstrate once more that what matters is the drive to set ambitious objectives and strive toward them in order to make dreams come true, not the degree or the money. They have the ambition to do the impossible and fight the insurmountable.
3. Delivering Happiness
Author: Tony Hsieh
The CEO and Founder of the well-known online shoe business Zappos talks about his experience working there. The author highlights his distinctive methods for developing a corporate culture, his dedication to enhancing the lives of his staff while assuring pleased customers, his triumphs, and mantras for others to achieve success via tales and anecdotes.
4. Dhirubhai Ambani: Against All Odds
Author: A G Krishnamurthy
The creator of the Reliance Empire, Dhirubhai Ambani, is profiled in this book. It provides insight into what can be considered the finest rags-to-riches tale of a tiny middle class businessman who started a firm that is now one of the largest in India.
5. Hatching Twitter
Author: Nick Bilton
In his discussion of the creation of Twitter, Nick Bilton presents a thoroughly thorough account of well-documented and researched tales about the conflict between the four founding friends, whose love and trust for one another deteriorated in the struggle for ownership of the social networking site, and how ultimately none of them could reach the top of the business.
6. Losing my Virginity
Author: Richard Branson
This book is the autobiography of business mogul, entrepreneur, and investor Richard Branson, albeit the title may be a bit deceptive to people who haven't heard of it. His most notable accomplishment is founding the Virgin Group, which consists of more than 400 businesses. The book details Branson's biography, including how he launched his first company at the age of 16, a magazine called Student, and how he went on to found Virgin Records. It also covers his different business experiments and how he developed and launched new goods. Branson also discusses his personal life experiences and way of thinking.
7. Made to Stick
Author: Chip, Dan Heath
Why Do Some Ideas Stick While Others Fall Apart? The reader's approach to conveying ideas is said to change after reading this book. The writers explain to readers the fundamentals of effective ideas and how to apply them to make their points stick. Ever questioned why a certain advertisement you watched a few years ago is still vivid in your memory while the advertisements you saw only a few minutes ago escape your memory? Working on solid ideas is crucial, but getting the audience to remember those ideas is a very different matter. Heath Brothers show how certain straightforward methods may make things appealing while also guaranteeing that no one will ever forget them.
8. Predictably Irrational: The Hidden Forces That Shape Our Decisions
Author: Dan Ariely
The premise of rational decision-making is contested in the book. The author concentrates on the ideas that affect how we make decisions and also tries to inspire the readers to think differently and steer clear of some repetitive blunders that they could unknowingly commit in their life.
9. Rework: Change the Way You Work Forever
Author: David H. Hansson
This book is in a completely different class from the conventional technique utilised by practically all company building publications. It demonstrates a better, quicker, and simpler method for achieving business success. Additionally, it introduces several wholly novel concepts and methods of operation and encourages you to use utterly unorthodox working methods.
10. Steel King: Lakshmi Mittal
Author: Prateeksha M Tiwary
The struggle of a little businessman who had huge dreams, took small chances, and outlasted all of his rivals to become the STEEL KING is highlighted in this book. This industrialist from India was able to think broadly. He never looked back after opening his first steelmaking facility in Indonesia and is now the CEO of Arcelor Mittal, the largest steel firm in the world. The book takes the readers on a journey that starts with Lakshmi Mittal's schooling, early business dealings, later relationships with his family, and the much-discussed and equally difficult Mittal takeover of its archrival arcelor.
