“How to Win Friends and Influence People” Author: Dale CarnegieThis was one of the first books I read when I began a business dealing with people. It is to this day one of the first books I recommend people read if they are interested in self improvement and developing people skills. Carnegie’s book uses examples of right and wrong responses in situations that involve relationships.
A easy to read life skills and business skills gem by Frank Bettger
FROM BILLY FLORENCE: I did judge this book by its cover and its title. When I saw How I Raised Myself From Failure to Success Through Selling for the first time, the last skill I wanted to acquire was that of “salesman.” I was an Air Force pilot at the time. That’s not a job known for developing exceptional people skills.Billy Florence about the book’s benefits: I learned how to be a better listener from Bettger’s book. The discipline of focusing on the other person’s needs – first – is valuable in every profession and to every person. Plus, if you are interested in learning what single word can change your effectiveness in business – read this book.

"Washington, The Indispensable Man" Author: Thomas Flexner
Four Star Business Book Award
by Chris Brady
Last summer I had the awesome opportunity to tour Mount Vernon, the plantation home of George Washington. It was a magic moment for me. I love history and architecture and nature anyway, and the national landmark was a very interesting blend of all three.
In the book store I browsed an enormous selection of books about our first president. Above the shelves was a survey taken among hundreds of the country's foremost historians about their opinion of the finest Washington biography. Without a doubt, the number one biography chosen by those historians was James Thomas Flexner's "Washington, The Indispensable Man".
