Leadership Books List Updated with New Books and Categories

by JD

Leadership Books

“Lead me, follow me, or get out of my way.” — General George Patton

Leadership is not limited to role or position.

Leadership is a set of skills that anyone can benefit from. We lead ourselves first, and that’s how we lead others.

Categories for Leadership Books

I finished sweeping my Leadership Books list.  It took a while to update it, but I think it reflects a good set of leadership books by key categories now.  Here are the leadership book categories at a glance:

  • Top 10 Best Leadership Books
  • Getting Started
  • Attitude
  • Authenticity, Authentic Leadership
  • Change
  • Character

  • Development, Leadership Development

New Leadership Books Added to the List

I added a few new books to my leadership books list including The 5 Levels of Leadership, by John Maxwell, and StandOut, by Marcus Buckingham, which weren’t available when I first put my list of leadership books together.

I also added some books to the list based on feedback from different folks.  For example, I added 177 Mental Toughness Secrets of the World Class, by Steve Siebold, Executive Presence: The Art of Commanding Respect Like a CEO, by Harrison Monarth, and The Leadership Test, by Timothy Clark.

I also added 180 Climbing the Two Ladders to Inner Strength & Outer Freedom, by Rob White to the list of leadership books because I think it’s a great book on leadership from the inside out, and I’m a big believer that all leadership starts with self-leadership.
