That's right, we're a book club that doesn't even require you to read the book.

Each meeting starts with a video or PDF presentation of the book's key concepts so you can learn everything you need to know just by attending the meeting. We'll discuss how we've applied the book's concepts to our businesses and then leave with an action plan to apply them starting immediately (if you don't use it, you lose it). 

Who Should Join

Open to anyone who'd like to learn more strategies for improving their business skills. Whether you are starting a business, manage a work team, or just want to better manage yourself, the same lessons apply. 

Why You Should Join

• If you read a business book every month, you will be in the top 1% of learner in the World.

I created this group because you become what you focus on and the people you surround yourself with. I wanted to surround myself with other awesome business leaders and talk about what works.

What Meetings Are Like

• Video or PDF review of key topics in the book (so YES you can learn all you need to know without even reading the book). Attending one meeting will teach you more than reading for hours alone. 
• Discussion of how we've applied key concepts to our businesses (successfully and unsuccessfully). 
• Worksheet on how you plan to apply key concepts to your business life immediately 
• Members vote on which book to read next, some of the upcoming options include...
