In this episode, we're going to talk about five books that have helped shape my thinking and prepare me for a future in leadership.

As manufacturers, we're living in a world that the military has labeled a V.U.C.A. world, which stands for Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, and Ambiguous. As a new business leader, we’re faced with many new challenges.

Three key challenges are that we have new competition, we have new technology, and we need to have new people constantly coming in the door applying for jobs.

In this episode, I want to share a couple of insights from each of the five books that have helped create a new mindset for me and how it has moved my thinking forward.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:

• Key takeaways from each of the 5 books

• How each takeaway relates to you as a manufacturing leader

• What are the important first steps to take as you begin to implement
