Business Strategy Books Cont’d: Guest Post by Accuquote’s Sean Cheyney
Yesterday, I replied to a post by Brian Reich about whether or not there are any good business strategy books out there (you can follow this on the Twitter hashtag #bizstratbooks), and asked a number of individuals to respond. One of them is Sean Cheyney, Accuquote’s VP of Marketing and Business Development.
Here’s what Sean had to say via email this morning, and I hope that in a future email he teases out why the books he mentions are his favorites, what makes a great business strategy book, and what fails to meet the mark:

- The Go Getter by Peter Kyne
- Emotional Intelligence by Daniel Goleman
