I am planning to embark on an exciting learning expedition. Main areas of interest: Leadership, Innovation and

Entrepreneurship. I have got suggestions from many of my friends and colleagues in creating a comprehensive reading

list. I have collected most of my reading list items in last couple of months (30 books in my library). Now is the time to execute on the plan. I am planning to complete at least

one book per month in each of the key focus areas. As I progress, I shall share my learning with everybody. I am

hoping to get lots of feedback that will help in enriching my leaning experience. I hope that at the same time this will be

helpful to all the participants as well.
