11 Must-Reads to Lead in Politics

Books are an unfair advantage:
Years, decades, a life-time of experience & research captured on a few pages. Ready for us to digest and try out. A shortcut, a way to avoid a lot of experimentation and wrong turns.
But then again, there a lot of books out there. And we don't have time for unhelpful books.
So, here are my 11 must-reads for anyone in politics, or about to step into the arena:
Groundbreakers by Elizabeth McKenna and Hahrie Han
Don't think of an Elephant by George Lakoff
Speech on the Temptations of Power by Vaclav Havel
The Power Paradox by Dacher Keltner
Friend and Foe by Adam Galinksy and Adam Schweitzer
Practical Wisdom by Barry Schwartz and Kenneth Sharpe
Meditations by Marcus Aurelius
Atomic Habits by James Clear
Into The Magic Shop by James R. Doty
Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor E. Frankl
