Among the many topics covered at HBE events, leadership is a client favorite. Over the years, HBE has had the pleasure of working with many of the nation’s most acclaimed leadership authors and speakers.
In fact, in a recent perusal of The Washington Post‘s On Leadership blog, Hooks Book Events CEO Perry Pidgeon Hooks couldn’t help but notice how many of the site’s recommended books and authors her team has worked with at various client events!
On Leadership’s featured book and author on April 5th wasI’d Rather Be in Charge: A Legendary Business Leader’s Roadmap for Achieving Pride, Power, and Joy at Work, by Charlotte Beers. That same day, Ms. Beers discussed her book at an event (arranged by HBE) with the Greater Washington Board of Trade. Check out The New York Times’ interview with Charlotte too!
In reflecting on the blog’s Eight Best Leadership books of 2011, we noticed that Hooks Books Events has done author events with Robert Hurley’s The Decision to Trust and Betsy Myers’ Take The Lead. HBE clients have also hosted Walter Isaacson and Morten T. Hansen with earlier titles.
Of the seven leadership books, including both classics and new titles, that On Leadership says “belong on your bookshelf”, Hooks Book Events has produced client events with two of the featured authors — Sydney Finkelstein and Daniel Pink. Dan, by the way is busily working on a new book and HBE will be working with him again soon! Let us know if you want more information!
