  Business leaders didn't get to where they are today without a bit of wisdom guiding them along the way.

  如果没有智慧的一路相伴,这些商业巨头不会有今日的成就。

  Many of them cite books — whether strategy guides or novels — that inspired them or changed the way they think.

  不论是经营战略还是小说,他们列举了激励和改变他们的思考方式的一些书名。

  Yahoo!CEO Marissa Mayer

  雅虎首席执行官玛丽莎·梅耶尔

  Mayer revealed her favorite book as“The Design of Everyday Things” (2002) by Donald Norman. She said:

  她透露她最喜欢的书是由唐纳德·诺曼撰写的《设计心理学》。

  “I think a lot about design and products and how things should work. But it makes you notice things that can be infuriating. Like, why does my sandwich shop have meat all the way over there?At the same time, it makes you think about design in new ways, because when you use something everyday it needs to be absolutely efficient and not get in your way. It's cool to be able to articulate and discuss that on a level that is really accessible and interesting.”

  “关于设计、产品和工作原理,我思考了很多。但这本书会让你留意到能让你抓狂的事物。比如说,为什么我的三明治店里的肉总要从那里采购?此外,它会让你产生考虑设计的新思路,因为你每天都要使用,所以它绝对是高效又不碍事的。能在可行又有趣的层面上清晰地表达和讨论,这感觉很棒。”

  Trump Organization CEO Donald Trump

  特朗普集团总裁唐纳德·特朗普

  Trump named “The Power of Positive Thinking” by Norman Vincent Peale as his favorite book, according to ShortList Magazine. This book inspired Trump at his lowest moment when he was billions of dollars in debt. He told Psychology Today:

  据Shortlist Magazine杂志透露,特朗普最喜欢的书是由诺曼·文森·皮尔所著的《积极思考的力量》。在特朗普处于失业最低谷,背负数十亿美元债务的时候,这本书激励了他。他说:

  “My father was friends with Dr. Norman Vincent Peale, and I had read his famous book, 'The Power of Positive Thinking.' I'm a cautious optimist but also a firm believer in the power of being positive. I think that helped. I refused to be sucked into negative thinking on any level, even when the indications weren't great. That was a good lesson because I emerged on a very victorious level. It's a good way to go.”

  “我的父亲和诺曼·文森是朋友。我读过他的著作《积极思考的力量》。我是行事谨慎的乐观主义者,也是相信积极乐观的力量的忠实信徒。我认为这一点帮助了我。我不愿陷入负面思维里,即使种种迹象表明目前情形不容乐观。这是很好的一堂课,因为我能以胜利者的姿态出现。这种方式值得尝试。”

  Zappos CEO Tony Hsieh

  Zappos总裁谢家华

  Hsieh told USA Today that one of his favorite books is “Tribal Leadership Leveraging Natural Groups to Build a Thriving Organization” by Dave Logan, John King and Halee Fischer Wright.

  谢家华告诉《今日美国》,在他最喜欢的书中,有一本书叫作《部落领导力》。这本书是由戴夫·罗根,约翰·金,海立·费舍·赖特共同编著的。
