Required Reading For Entrepreneurs Everywhere

What Book Has Been the Most Influential In Building Your Business?

We all started somewhere. Something inspired us to choose the business we are in today.  Maybe it was an internship or maybe it was a part-time job we picked up during college which actually made us realize our true passion.  From that passion, we begin to hunger for knowledge and guidance on how to best pursue the direction we’d like to go.  

Over the next several weeks, we'll be exploring several classic, must-have, business books and what has made them invaluable to entrepreneurs over the years.

The is the book which every entrepreneur should have a copy, entitled, “The World Is Flat” by Thomas L. Friedman.   This book describes the impact of globalization, with historical examples leading all the way up to the way we currently do business in America.  Friedman refers to the world being flat in terms of leveling the playing field for anyone interested in entrepreneurism.  Online information is so easily accessed, giving limitless business opportunities, from the local American housewife wanting to run her own business to an employee in India being paid for an outsourced job.
