Book Club

This is my first book club and I have to admit I was not previously an avid book reader. Mhairi does a great job of bringing together a wide variety of people to make for interesting discussions about that months chosen book. The evenings are engaging and allow me to look at the leadership / business books from other perspectives and open my mind to different ways of viewing the world. After nearly 1 year of attending I feel like I have learnt a ton and am starting to understand what it means to read a good book!  Phil Cridge

 What I love about Mhairi's book club is, first of all, it "forces" me to read at least one business book per month! Secondly, the diversity of the books chosen and the people who attend encourages some great feedback and conversation about the texts we consider. I think that in itself is the attraction, as often I learn more from those interactions than I sometimes get from the book itself! I now have a much wider appreciation and breadth of knowledge from being part of this great book club.  Paul Green

I joined Mhairi’s leadership book club earlier this year as I love reading and the idea of a book club sounded so much fun. Since joining, I’ve met a great group of people and had some great conversations about some interesting books (whether we liked them or not!), and learned more about myself & my approach to business and work. Thank you Mhairi for bringing us all together! Emily

"Sharing and discussing ideas about the books we read - I feel I get more from hearing other people's perspectives on the book than by just reading it myself."

"Book club has given me a great community of like minded people. Book club has helped me to start reading again too."

"Hearing all the different things people have to say. It’s good to get other perspectives and is interesting to hear other points of view  and the fact that there's space for everyone's thoughts and opinions

" I can thoroughly recommend this book club. Mhairi is a fantastic host and has some really though provoking questions for everyone to ponder. All the members are really respectful of other points of view. The titles we cover are varied and educational. "

"I would recommend book club to individuals leaving university and people who are new to business. "

"Yes, yes absolutely and already have done :)"

 "Yes definitely, it's a great group and I really enjoy everyone's company/ hearing their thoughts on the book. It's also perfect if you need a little bit of a push to make sure you read because it feels like you have this group of people relying on you to finish it and share your opinion."
