Books that have shaped American Business

The Washington Post recently published a list of books that shaped America.  Made me think of writing about books that have shaped American business.  Perhaps I’ll follow-up with more rational when I have more time.  But here is a start to your summer reading.

The first book that comes to mind is Clay Christensen’s classic – The Innovator’s Dilemma.

Last week I was in Winston-Salem, North Carolina and couldn’t help but be reminded of Barbarians at the Gate at each turn I took in the city.

I’d probably add Thomas Friedman’s The World is Flat, Gladwell’s The Tipping Point, Michael Porter’s Competitive Strategy, Stephen Covey’s book, Surowieki’s The Wisdom of Crowds, and a few books from Peter Drucker.
