August book recommendations…
Let celebrate bold leadership and the voices of women this Women's Month
Exclusive Books’ latest recommendations bring together an exciting collection of local and international titles, chosen to reflect the conversations South Africans are having this month, from the boardroom to the kitchen table.
Book of the Month:
Book of the Month is The Four Principles by Adrian Gore, founder and Group Chief Executive of Discovery. Part memoir, part leadership playbook, The Four Principles draws on Gore’s own experience building Discovery from a start-up into a global business, offering practical tools for clearer decision-making, resilience and long-term thinking. It is essential reading for entrepreneurs, business leaders and anyone curious about the psychology behind sustained success.
Celebrating the women who write our stories
Leading the list is Lilian Ngoyi by Martha Evans, a biography of the anti-apartheid stalwart who co-led the historic 1956 Women’s March to the Union Buildings. Arriving as South Africa prepares to mark National Women’s Day on 9 August, the book offers a timely and moving account of Ngoyi’s life and her role in shaping the country’s fight for freedom.
Also featured is Divine Arrangements by Takalani Mutshinyane, a compelling work of literary fiction from one of South Africa’s emerging voices, alongside Home Truths About Money by Sylvia Walker, a candid look at personal finance, and Corporate Rebel by Sadika Fakir, which challenges conventional thinking about leadership and the modern workplace.
All these wonderful reads are available at Exclusive Books‘ stores nationwide and online.
