A curated reading list to support clarity, growth, and intentional living
Books have a unique ability to shape how we think, reflect, and make sense of our lives.
The books recommended here have been selected because they offer perspective, challenge assumptions, and support deeper understanding across life, work, leadership, and personal direction.
Some focus on mindset and meaning. Others explore performance, decision-making, or long-term fulfilment. Together, they form a reading list that has influenced the thinking behind Next Chapter by Design.

- InnerDrive Quiz: A self-awareness assessment that helps you understand how you interpret the world and make decisions.
- Next Chapter Compass: A whole-of-life diagnostic that helps you see where you are aligned, where gaps exist, and where focused attention will make the greatest difference.
Your Next Step
