For the Revolution Reading List, I strongly encourage you to read Amy Edmondson’s Teaming , it’s a great review of the needed changes for organizations to embrace innovation. For no specific list, but as a book that was really transformational for my thinking, Todd Rose’s The End of Average really helped point out the problems with our current obsession with simplistic evaluations of people.

So, very good news today: Invention Of Air hit the Times extended bestseller list on its first full week, at #23, and the Booksense list at #25. There's lots more to come, though, so hopefully we will keep climbing the list in the coming weeks. That's the best start I've ever had for any of my books, and it means that I've now had four straight bestsellers. So thanks to all of you who have picked up a copy and come out to the events. MORE
Do you have a to-learn list? A to-learn list is like a curriculum. I have dozens of to-learn lists. Lists are handy for recording one’s reflections at a point in time, but they constrain dealing with life as it comes. What guides me is not so much ticking off items on a to-learn list as becoming more proficient at what I do. Sticking to a list might keep me from delving into vital areas I am not currently aware of. MORE
I've not seen a good list of learning communities to go to in an on-going basis. So, I'm trying to form a list of on-going learning communities that learning professionals should know about. Please add comments below to help me flesh out this list.

We are particularly excited that this capability will soon allow us to have a weekly post that highlights hot list for the week. MORE
It does make me wonder, though, how much of the online world relies upon mailing lists as heavily as I do, and whether this is a generational difference. I’m on about a dozen active mailing lists, I think, although it’s possible the number is much higher.

This month’s Learning Circuit’s Big Question is on: To-Learn Lists. It appears that most of us (as is the case with me) don't keep a formal / tracked to learn list. Rather its an informal, ever changing list. However, the danger of not having a more formal list that is tied to goals means that likely they are not getting integrated into the to-do list and into daily lives. This is time allocation based rather than to-do list based. MORE
