One of my 2019 new year resolutions was to read more books. I signed up for GoodReads and stated a reading challenge with a modest goal of finishing twelve books. I finished twenty-four, and many of these books are great reads for entrepreneurs, CIOs, and other digital transformation leaders. What makes a good book? My favorites have a strong focus, come from a unique perspective, are easy.

Note: I received a free copy of this book for review. The short review: Excellent…the best book I’ve read on the subject. The long review: I’ve read a number of books on digital transformation over the years. Don’t get me wrong – there’s lots of theory in this book about WHY companies need to transform their organization but just as importantly (or maybe more importantly) there is more discussion of HOW to drive this transformation.
