I can thoroughly recommend reading Atul Gawande's "Checklist Manifesto". The premise, on the face of it, is mundane, but the stories that back up the claims are thoroughly enjoyable to read. http://atulgawande.com/book/the-checklist-manifesto/

The book is good, but the article it‘s based on is better, because there‘s simply not enough material for a whole book, so it feels a bit forced.

I wish every self help book had an article like this for it.
This was an excellent read. Thanks for the link!
Thanks for bringing this up! The name of the CEO didn't ring any bells for me until your comment. I've read the book and loved it; I second the recommendation.
Came here to say the same - book is an excellent read applicable across many professions.
