3 Minute Summary of Zuckerberg's Book Pick Gang Leader for a Day by Sudhir Venkatesh

by Thimblesofplenty

thimblesofplenty is a group of friends who also happen to be business people and avid readers. We wanted to keep up with the latest business books but found that time was a factor. So we divided out the work and each of us took a book and summarised it for the others. We though it might be a great idea to share these summaries with you. For a small price and a 3 minute time investment, our summary gives you some of the wisdom from the book, some food for thought and hopefully the impetus to make some time to read the whole book!

Whats Zuckerberg's Book Pick?

Mark Zuckerberg declared he would read a new book every other week in 2015, and he invited his millions of Facebook friends to join him and participate in an online discussion. At thimblesofplenty we're going along for the ride and are creating a summary of each book as it is announced so that you can participate in all the fun as its happening. Even if you don't have the time to read the full book until later, you can stay informed with our summary and participate in all the discussion and on-line activity around Marks challenge.

We hope you enjoy our 3 Minute Zuckerberg's Book Pick Summary of Gang Leader for a Day by Sudhir Venkatesh
