Business Bookworms
Do you love reading, and discussing business books, or…. just wish you had time?
Business Book Worms is an online book club, all about the business books that have changed the way people work, forever. And….. because we love to see organisations flourish, it’s completely FREE to join.
Subscribe Now to receive updates on comments on books, priority notifications and be part of the business bookworms clubs!
Here’s how it’ll work.
We’ll be choosing a book that is proposed by a business person (a Book Worm) who will tell us why they’ve chosen it, why it is important, and how it changed their business.
The selected book will then be reviewed by 3 other businesses, who will give us their honest opinion on it, and then… we open the floor on the on-line forums for us all to wade in, say what we liked, what we didn’t, and what we’ll be changing as a result.
So? How can YOU get involved?
You can either propose a book for next month, or wade in and comment on an existing book of the month via the comments (keep it clean and non-personal though please!)

Criteria for books
To propose a book you need to choose one which has been published for at least a year and has an ISBN number (so that people can request it from their local library); it also needs to be available in audio format (from audible.com) and available to buy on Amazon. Why? We want to make sure the club is open to as any people as possible.
