We Were Burning: Japanese Entrepreneurs and the Forging of the Electronic Age, Vol. 1
How could I not read about the man who engineered one of the greatest escapes in modern history! Reading this book and knowing the background of his escape from Japan made me laugh out-loud multiple times. I wrestled with a few of the lessons (Be patient, Establish priorities) due to the nature of his escape, but...he was a great CEO somewhat of a turnaround artist. He is also the same person who was smuggled out of Japan in a crate in some sort of Midnight Express rendezvous situation!
