The year is over! I exceeded my podcast goal of getting a new episode out every other week! And rather than eke out one more interview for the final podcast of the year, I decided to make my life more difficult by hitting up this past year\u2019s guests to find out the favorite books they read in 2013.<\/p>\n

At the time, I thought this episode would make a nice companion to my Another Year, In the Books<\/a> post, but now I realize it\u2019s just another symptom of my Need To Create Giant Organization-Oriented Projects. Regardless, you get the fruits of my obsessive-compulsive labor! This year-end episode features selections from nearly 2 dozen of our recent guests! Go give it a listen!<\/a> (And visit this cheat sheet<\/a> if you’d like to see which guests responded and which books they picked.)<\/p>\n
