Question: What book have you read this year that has helped you professionally?
Richard Kube, MD, Founder, CEO, Prairie Spine & Pain Institute, Peoria, Ill.: How to Drive Your Competition Crazy by Guy Kawasaki. Great book for anyone building a business, especially if you want that business to grow rapidly and be disruptive in the marketplace. Great foundational principles for sales and management teams in that book.
Rey Bosita, MD, MBA, Spine Surgeon, Texas Back Institute (Plano): The Bible.
