Why Are Most Business Books are Boring?

Most business books are dull.
I read the first 25 pages before a book loses its appeal. The writing is dense, the topic doesn’t warrant a book, or I quickly get the point.
In fact, I honestly believe most business books would be better served up as long articles.
Laura Valvasori has developed a new and interesting way for people to get more value from business books.
She recently launched the Business Book Collective, a virtual community that combines the concepts of a Mastermind group and a book club.
Each month, you read a book and share your thoughts and take-aways with like-minded people.
It’s a brilliant concept because you’re held accountable to finish the book and you benefit from the collective wisdom of the community.
Laura literally stumbled upon the idea a few months ago. But unlike many ideas that come and quickly go, she embraced it and launched BBC in January.
By the way, it’s World Book Day on April 23.
