NEW YORK - illiNews -- The highly anticipated Shortlist for the Business Book Awards 2021 has been announced for top business books published over the past 12 months. Authors, publishers and business figures gathered behind their screens to watch the buzzing online shortlist reveal party to celebrate the incredible breadth, diversity and quality of business book publishing in the UK and across the globe.
The Business Book Awards are now in their 4th year celebrating the quality and variety of business books and offer industry-wide recognition to new and established authors writing on a range of subjects for a diverse readership. In a year that has provided business leaders around the world with an unprecedented combination of both personal and professional challenges, this year's awards cover 12 different categories ranging from 'Start-up/Scale-up' and 'Business Journey' through to 'Business Self-Development' and 'Personal Wellbeing' to reflect the wide range of skills required for business success in the future.
Speaking at the launch of the 2021 awards, founder Lucy McCarraher said: "Many of the challenges that business leaders have come up against in the past 12 months could never have been foreseen at the start of 2020, but business books have provided a source of invaluable advice, inspiration and escapism for millions of people around the world. It has been fascinating to see how authors and publishers have adapted, so we feel it is more important than ever to unearth, recognise and celebrate the very best books of the year. I am proud to announce that this year we received over 275 entries and more than 40% of entries were from female authors."
