Categories :
Wiley is one of the world’s largest publishers and a global leader in scientific research and career-connected education. Founded in 1807, Wiley enables discovery, powers education, and shapes workforces. Here we unveil the latest spring collection of Wiley, featuring some of the exclusives for leadership and professional development.
Leadership and professional development are key aspects of personal growth and success in today's world. In order to progress in one's career and achieve professional goals, individuals need to continuously improve their skills and knowledge. While there are many ways to learn and develop, books remain one of the most powerful and effective tools for personal growth, particularly in the realm of leadership.
Father of Modern Philosophy, René Descartes, once said:
"The reading of all good books is like a conversation with the finest minds of past centuries."
Books are unique in their ability to convey a wide range of ideas and concepts in a clear, concise, and engaging manner. Unlike other learning mediums, such as videos or podcasts, books allow readers to absorb information at their own pace and in their own way. This flexibility is especially important for busy professionals who may not have the time or inclination to sit through long lectures or workshops.
Wiley, an American multinational publishing company, has produced some of the most popular titles to facilitate the personal growth and development of a wider spectrum of audiences, globally. In its latest spring selection, Wiley covers a diverse range of business and leadership subjects including DEI, employee wellbeing, business transformation and change management, improvements in leadership skills, team productivity and business success, and behavioural science.
