Over the years one of the most powerful ways that I have found to come up with new ideas is to read a wide variety of magazines on a broad array of topics. The positive impacts on my creativity are powerful and I thoroughly enjoy the process.
At the same time, there are a few core magazines that I do my best to read all of the time because they stimulate me within the areas that I work, namely growing businesses and leadership. Here are two that I strongly recommend and urge you to add to your regular reading:
Business 2.0. The strong theme used in each issue of this magazine makes it a powerful tool for learning and staying abreast of new developments in business. The February issue bordered on brilliant in its treatment of the hows and whys of businesses going green. To say that the information was enlightening is an understatement…find a copy and read it! Better yet, subscribe so you don’t miss an issue.
Fast Company. If you enjoy the business of growing a business and want to keep abreast of current developments, this is a magazine you need to read. Its consistent focus on ‘what’s next’ will pump up your creative energy and give you some new perspectives. This is a must read, need I say more?
If you have any magazines that you strongly recommend for entrepreneurs, growing business leaders, and independent professionals, please post them as a comment…I always welcome the chance to find new ways to create better ideas!!
