A number of standout business books were published in 2023. Two headliners lead the way—Walter Isaacson (who wrote the biographies of Steve Jobs and Albert Einstein) offers a tell-all biography of the richest man in the world. Michael Lewis (author of Liar’s Poker, Moneyball, The Big Short) takes a dive into the mystery of the recently convicted Sam Bankman-Fried.
Dozens of other worthy titles investigated a myriad of topics, including better ways to fail—and to think, the interplay between skill and luck and how to recognize and avoid financial fraud. Each of these books can aid advisors in reframing the financial world in a new light and offer tips to better manage your practice.
As always, the list also includes a worthy novel set in the world of finance whose fictional themes offers lessons just as pertinent as those of the non-fiction titles.
