Built to Last👍 Recommends
…recommending influential books that shaped newsom's thinking and leadership
“My favorite book, one of the most influential books interesting in my life is called Built to Last. It's about the tyranny of war versus the genius of and. Both and... It's so interesting to have a book that shaped me early on. I was aspiring to be a small business person... And talked about being a clock builder versus a timekeeper. Talked about the genius of Anne versus the tyranny of war. It changed my mindset and my outlook.”

Meditations👍 Recommends
…recommending influential books that shaped newsom's thinking and leadership
“I hate to bring this book up because it's such a universal, obvious book. I had never read it. I've had 10 copies. I finally picked it up off the shelf. I'm like, what the heck? Meditations from Marcus Aurelius. And I'm like, where the hell have I been? Or where's that book been?”
