A few weeks back, I wrote a blog post about continually pursuing growth and learning – both professionally and personally through reading. This week I’d like to share Ubertor’s library. The topics of each book vary and range from business strategy, company culture, leadership, fitness and self-taught, do-it-yourself books.
Team members have access to the books to engage, read and learn from. We’ve followed the Zappos belief that “Study after study shows that engaging employees through learning and education is much more effective in motivating employees than money or recognition. Motivated employees require less supervision, have a better attitude, and are more productive; all these factors will improve your bottom line.” Our library is the first step in this direction.
To get the ball rolling, and our readers pumped about reading, Ubertor will be giving away the 4-Hour Work Week by Tim Ferriss. The 4-Hour work week is the blueprint on escaping the 9-5 by understanding and focusing on determination, elimination, automation, and liberation (DEAL) in your life.
Here is how you enter to win:
- Become a fan of Ubertor on Facebook (1 entry)
- Post a comment below how you think this book can effect your business (1 entry)
- Follow @Ubertor on Twitter and send out the following tweet: (1 entry)
