This article, which originally appeared in the September/October issue of Harvard Business Review, is offered in audio form exclusively through Audible.

This month's edition of Soundview Executive Book Summaries contains condensed versions of three great business books. In Time Traps, sales expert Todd Duncan explains all the traps that steal your time, and shows why you should abandon the pointless pursuit of time management and, instead, adopt a far more actionable approach: task management. He explains that by focusing your time better you can make more money and have more free time - at the same time.

In Good to Great, renowned author Jim Collins examines the fundamentals behind the few companies that make the leap to greatness, and the many that fail to do so. Built upon five years of research, Collins and his team identified 11 companies who had achieved greatness - defined as outperforming the stock market by a factor of three for 15 years - and discovered that they all exhibited a series of common factors. These factors, ranging from the presence of leaders who exhibit personal humility to a company-wide understanding of core business goals, form the basis for Good to Great.

Why are some people and organizations more innovative, more influential, and more profitable than others? Why do some command greater loyalty from customers and employees alike? Even among the successful, why are so few able to repeat their successes over and over? People like Martin Luther King Jr., Steve Jobs, and the Wright Brothers might have little in common, but they all started with why.
Chris says: "Why do we have emotions? Market to that"
