EXISTING SMALL BUSINESS BOOKS

Back to Existing Small Business Consulting Page

Senior Associates at Unicorn Consulting Associates are experts in Small Business; our knowledge and practical experience (minimum of 15 years) is extensive.  If you would like to start educating yourself on Small Business the tip of the knowledge iceberg is outlined in the following Small Business books:

Special Note: Unicorn Consulting Associates does not recommend ANY book for small business regarding taxes, tax planning or tax management. Business taxes change rapidly and vary widely from state to state. Any book written today on taxes can be dangerously out of date by tomorrow. The only good source for advice on taxes is a qualified CPA with extensive experience working with small businesses.  Similarly, we do not recommend any book on legal advice for small businesses. Legal advice is best given by a qualified lawyer with extensive experience working with small businesses in your state. Going cheap on a lawyer or a CPA is a horrible mistake many small business owners make; we get what we pay for.

by
Ralph E. Warner


The Effective Executive
by Peter F. Drucker


The Five Temptations of a CEO

Rating: Expert
More small businesses have sunk under the weight of the owners ego than under the IRS. Focus, attention to detail and remember who we are (and aren’t) can be fun.

The godfather of management thinking provides inspiration, advice and common sense ideas we all need.

Rating: Superior
The entire set of short books by Mr. Lencioni should be on every small business owner’s bookshelf.
