A good book is indeed the best friend of a person.The same goes for high—profile CEOs of world recognized companies as well.Let's have a look at the favorite books of some of the world-famous CEOs.
Apple CEO—Tim Cook,Competing against Time by George Stalk Jr.and Thomas M.Hout
This book is based on 10 years of valuable research done by the authors.It talks about how new concepts of managing time in new product development,production and sales provide companies with the advantages to succeed in this highly competitive world.
Microsoft CEO(Former)—Bill Gates,The Catcher in the Rye by J.D.Salinger
A few themes explored in the novel are rebellion(叛逆),anxiety and confusion.It admits that young people are a little confused,but can be smart about things and see things that adults don't really see.Gates said,"I didn't actually read The Catcher in the Rye until I was 13,and ever since then I've said that's my favorite book."
Oracle CEO—Larry Ellison,Napoleon by Vincent Cronin
This book is considered by far the best biography ever written on Napoleon Bonaparte.Ellison said,"It's interesting to read about him for a couple of reasons: to see what an ordinary man can do with his life and to see how history can distort(歪曲)the truth entirely."
OWE CEO—Oprah Winfrey,To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee
This book talks about how a little girl observes the people around her.Winfrey said,"I read it in eighth or ninth grade,and I was trying to persuade other kids to read the book.So it makes sense to me that now I have a book club, because I have been doing that probably since I read this book."
