Best reading on business strategy?
6
The more time I spend in building tech tools, the more I realize how important it is to use first principles thinking and de-risk major components and think strategically. Code generation is cheap but human judgement is not - so wondering if you would have any reading you'd recommend on this? Thanks in advance!

Zero to One by Peter Thiel is a must-read if you’re into first principles thinking.

Blue Ocean Strategy by W. Chan Kim and Renée Mauborgne is a great read on rethinking industries and creating uncontested market space. Crossing the Chasm by Geoffrey Moore also has valuable insights on bringing cutting-edge products to larger markets.
