What You Should Read In Your First Year In Insurance

Almost without exception leaders are readers, and here at Insurance Nerds we are obsessive readers.

After much thought, here is our list of books a new insurance professional should read in his first year, which would put him WAY ahead of the game.

1. Getting Things Done: The first thing you have to figure out when you show up at your first job is how to be effective getting results, and this book will teach you EXACTLY how to do that.

Simply read this pretty easy read and start applying its teaching. Bonus points if you end up getting a whiteboard for your desk and make it into an Eisenhower matrix.

2. Happiness Advantage: Now that you know how to be effective getting your work done the next thing you should learn is the fact that ultimately what you’re seeking is happiness. You might think that you’re seeking money, or career success, or power, but in reality, you’re seeking happiness.
