Good books challenge. They inspire. They make us hunger for more. And somehow the experience is not complete until you’ve shared your thoughts with someone else that has read the book. Research tells us that the best way to remember new ideas and put them into action is to share our thoughts and ideas with someone else. In fact, participating in a book discussion increases our retention by 70%. 

When professionals get together to discuss a book they:

• make new – and improve existing – relationships

• engage in powerful conversations

• invest in their own professional development

• clarify their thinking

• challenge their assumptions
