What We Are Reading This Summer
Posted by Sean Harry
With the overwhelming heatwave we’ve been experiencing the past week or so, you may have noticed that summer has officially arrived in Portland! Along with summer comes time for reflection and expanding our knowledge – which means summer reading (and/or listening) lists. We’ve asked some PCC SBDC Advisors to share what’s on their reading list this summer and thought we would share it with you. Some of these books are specifically focused on business, while some of them are more for personal pleasure and/or professional development. Here’s what’s on our reading lists this summer:
On Tammy and David’s list is “a new book just out by our colleague Maurice Kogan David adds, “We will be using this as a text for our new “Buying and Selling Outside of the US” course (formerly Global Trade Management).”
Sean is reading by Donald Miller. Also on Sean’s list are: by Mark Schaefer; by Henry David Thoreau; and by Craig Romano.
Elisa has three books on her summer reading list: by Scott Galloway; by Beverly Daniel Tatum; and by Michelle Zauner
Noah tells us he’s “reading and referring to a bunch of different books on writing fiction. Not very businesslike, but timely for what I’m up to.”
Mike P says, “I’ve been reading by Andrea Fryrear as I continue my effort to balance long term planning and predictability with the ability to shift priorities to address more immediate needs.”
While Mike K says, “My current read and study is a book called by Diane Eshin Rizzetto.”
Kim is reading by David Epstein, as well as by Ileoma Oluo; and by Peter Singer.
What’s on YOUR reading list this summer? We would love to know!
