Have a Book You’re Passionate About? Let’s Explore It Together!
At the Atomic Habits Book Club, we believe that great ideas and meaningful discussions come from a diverse range of voices and perspectives. Whether you’re a faculty member with a book that has transformed your teaching or a student who’s been inspired by a particular read, we want to hear from you!
How to Suggest a Book and Get Involved
If you have a book in mind that you think would make a great addition to our book club, we invite you to collaborate with us. Here’s how you can get started:
- Suggest a Book:
- Choose a book that aligns with our mission of personal growth, habit formation, or any other topic that could spark engaging discussions and self-reflection.
- Think about why this book would be valuable for our community and what key lessons or themes it offers.
- Create a Few Blog Posts:
- Write a brief overview or summary of the book, highlighting its main concepts and why they matter.
- Develop 2-3 initial blog posts that introduce key chapters or sections of the book. Each post should include a summary, discussion questions, and a personal reflection prompt.
- Suggest any additional resources or activities (like worksheets or habit trackers) that could accompany each post.
- Reach Out to Us:
- Send your book suggestion and draft blog posts to BEC@bmcc.cuny.edu (mention the Business Club) or directly to rsnipes@bmcc.cuny.edu.
- Include a brief introduction of yourself and explain why you’re excited about this book. If you’re a faculty member, feel free to share how you’ve used the book in your teaching.
- Collaborate on the Launch:
- Once your book is selected, we’ll work with you to finalize the blog posts, create additional content, and launch the book as part of our online book club.
- You’ll have the opportunity to engage with readers in the comments section, answer questions, and guide discussions around your chosen book.
