summer reading list OBJ

If the current heat and humidity is any indication, the dog days of summer are upon us. Business stops for no one, but even the busiest and most successful entrepreneurs and executives understand the value and importance of getting some much-needed R&R.

Ottawa’s hard-working business community continues to show just how resilient it is to the challenges of the last few years. What better way to celebrate, relax and recharge than soak up some sun, lounge by a pool or do some travelling?

To that effect, the OBJ team will be stepping away from our desks for a one-week hiatus from Aug. 5-9. To keep you busy while we’re away, we’ve compiled a list of some of our favourite stories of the year so far.
