What Books Are You Reading?
Today I was discussing with a business associate and we got on the topic of books. I was recently gifted a book that has some very thought-provoking views. It is called The Business Plan for Peace.
Here is the book summary from Amazon:
Many people feel powerless in the face of what they see on TV or read in the news – a world in crisis, with wars and violence taking place across the globe. Scilla Elworthy has written a book for all those who want to step out of helplessness and apply their skills to do something about the challenges now facing us. Packing a punch with facts and figures, the first few chapters investigate the forces that drive armed conflict, and then, by contrast, show what is already effective in building peace at both local and international levels. The crucial heart of the book is a first-ever costed Business Plan for Peace, showing that war can be prevented for $2 billion. The final, upbeat, pages reveal the massive impact that ordinary people can have in making a peaceful world possible, and how they can do it.
You have probably heard the saying “Leaders are Readers” which is why here at Ollin Women we do a monthly Club. Learning together is a fabulous way to create autonomy amongst our Ollin Women International Members and Ambassadors.
Some of the books we have read or are reading together are:
