So, to help inspire our more industrious readers, we have a few business-related books bursting with words from the wise.
The Airbnb Story
There was a time when art school graduate, Brian Chesky, could hardly raise the cash for a plane ticket; today, he runs a business valued at more than $25 billion. However, despite his rise to the top, Brian has encountered more than just a little turbulence along the way — disrupting a $500 billion hotel industry was always likely to turn people against him! Leigh Gallagher tells the inside story, including the highs and lows, which have led to the success of a company focused on changing how we travel and where we stay.
