Business & Tech Books That Can Boost Your Career

There's nothing like having a good book to read on a sunny (or rainy) summer day—especially if it helps you advance in your career. So, as is Baseline's tradition, we're presenting the following list of recommended summer book titles. They represent an eclectic selection of significant technology and business topics. One comes from the CEO of a top open-source company, who is promoting the value of organizational transparency. Another illustrates how "the Oracle Way" can help you manage virtually any work-based challenge and emerge as a respected leader. There's a guide about building a winning business case for your ideas, and a book about companies turning "green" practices (i.e., environmental initiatives) into "green" (as in revenue). We've even included a title that reveals how you can adapt Navy SEAL techniques to tackle business-world challenges, as authored by a legendary SEAL trainer. As always, publishing information about these titles is subject to change, so please contact the publishing company for release dates and other details.
