Here are a few of Johnson & Burge’s Top Picks:

The Go-Giver by Bob Burge and John David Mann
The Go-Giver is one of Jennie’s favorite books and one that she reads every year. It is a story that demonstrates by constantly and consistently providing value to others, one can experience a truly fulfilling way to live and work.

The 5 Second Rule by Mel Robbins
One of Jeremy's favorite books is Mel Robbins' The 5 Second Rule. "It's a great reminder, like Nike says, to just do it. Mel's book gives great insight into why we are reluctant to make decisions or have conversations and then backs it up with science." 5-4-3-2-1 ... read this book!

Jan really enjoyed The Gifts of Imperfection. This book helps you embrace your inner flaws and accept who you are as you are! This book reassures you that it’s okay to be less than perfect, and there’s no shame in being vulnerable when having tough conversations.
