Don’t Know What to Get Your Colleagues? Here’s an Idea
Often, around the holidays, investors like to send out a little something to colleagues and other acquaintances. For example, Boston-based Flybridge Capital Partners (formerly known as IDG Boston), each year gives out a non-business book to its portfolio CEOs. This year, they’ll receive Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln, by historian Doris Kearns Goodwin, which looks at the importance of teamwork in overcoming difficult situations. Accel Partners also sends out books -- or used to. I haven’t received anything from the firm since its 2005 move into China, when I was sent Oracle Bones: A Journey Through Time in China by Peter Hessler. Perhaps I forgot to say thank you (it really is a great book).
