One lesson every entrepreneur should remember, is to make sure to keep reading and keep learning from your peers and colleagues.
As 2022 gets underway, it’s important to take stock of the past few years and the changes that they’ve triggered in business and other industries on a global scale. We believe in the importance of taking the time to learn from others and listen to what your peers are saying.
With that in mind, here are some of my favourite business books from 2022 which will help you stay ahead of the curve!
