Yes, the professional reading list, it seems as if everyone has one these days; so have you considered developing your own? In the late 1980s the Marine Corps Professional Reading Program officially got its start as the "Commandant's Reading List," each CMC since has placed his personal "stamp" on the program, though many of the books have remained consistent; apparently, in some form or another "recommended reading" lists have been generated for marines since the 19th century; today we see that each service, organization, etc. have a recommended reading lists of one sort or another... so, have you considered... what would be your "leaders reading list?"  It could be career-field specific, cover leadership and/or management, training, human psychology/achievement, life planning/financial, or any other subject(s) that you find complementary for a fitting and thorough list. So, the challenge here is to determine... what titles would you put on your own personal version of a "professional reading list?"

SSG B, great choices, I'm familiar with and recommend 3, 4, and 5; I haven't heard of "It Worked for Me" or "MBA in a Day," I'm pretty sure folks would be interested in knowing more; so, please feel free to offer any details you think would be useful or "gee whiz" information.  Again, great selections... thanks for sharing!
