Books Featured on this Site
I’ve frequently interviewed authors on the Timeless Leadership podcast. To make it easier for listeners to find their work in one place, I created this page.
If you prefer to support local independent bookstores, there are links to Bookshop.org as well as the usual Amazon links.
There are also books featured in the Timeless & Timely newsletter. (Amazon | Bookshop.org)
Plus, if you refer enough friends to the newsletter, I’ll send you a free book from this list!
When you purchase books through these links, it supports my efforts.
