800-CEO-READ Business Book Awards

800-CEO-READ Business Book Awards

 

Thousands of business books are published each year, each with the potential to promote change and enlighten the way people think about business. We began recognizing these efforts in 2007 with the 800-CEO-READ Business Book Awards, highlighting the best works in a number of categories. Each book is judged on the originality and applicability of its ideas and the quality of its content. The overall winner is announced every year in New York City. There is a video excerpt from this year's event, held on January 19th, after the review, and you can find past  winners after this year's shortlist.
