Management & Leadership
Organizational Management
Three books on how organizations run, and how to make them run better. Atul Gawande's The Checklist Manifesto argues that well-designed checklists prevent errors in complex work, from operating rooms to cockpits. The Phoenix Project, a business novel by Gene Kim, Kevin Behr and George Spafford, follows a manager who must save a failing IT project. Brad Stone's The Everything Store shows the systems and the culture behind Amazon's growth. For managers, team leads and students of how work actually gets done.
