GEEKS & GEEZERS: HOW ERA, VALUES AND DEFINING MOMENTS SHAPE LEADERS

I was lucky to work with Warren Bennis just after he published Geeks & Geeezers, as he spent a year visiting Harvard. His thinking on development and aging inspired me profoundly, and I felt lucky our paths overlapped when they did.

MIND IN SOCIETY: THE DEVELOPMENT OF HIGHER PSYCHOLOGICAL PROCESSES

I rarely refer to anything but pages 84-91, where the great Russian psychologist outlines his theory for the zone of proximal development...although all of Vygotsky's amazing work was groundbreaking.

THE REFLECTIVE PRACTITIONER: HOW PROFESSIONALS THINK IN ACTION

I discovered this book by the famous MIT social scientist and consultant in grad school, and it forever changed how I work. He shows how engineers, architects, managers, psychotherapists and town planners really go about solving problems. Not the easiest read, but fascinating nevertheless.
