Hello,

Hope you all are doing well.

I was looking for blogs or books or podcasts related to leadership skills

I have already read Robin Sharma, Adam Grant, Simon Sinek, Prakash Iyer and Dale Carnegieā€™s books

Do you have any other good recommendations or suggestions if any?

I know there are no recipes for leadership or how to handle people better.

Itā€™s all a very situational and case-case story.

But sooner or later I will be in this position and I canā€™t escape it and do not want it to be awkward.

Regards
Mahathee

I am reading Learning to Lead, Leading to Learn by Katie Anderson with the Profound Book Club. I learning a lot from reading the book. The books explores leadership by looking at the career of a senior Toyota executive. I would recommend reading it: https://kbjanderson.com/learning-to-lead/
