ABOUT THE AWARDS

Writing and publishing a book is a powerful way for a businessperson to build their profile, promote their business and stand out from the crowd. Even today, with blogs, videos, Facebook and Twitter, a book provides an air of authority that sets a published author apart.

The Australian Business Book Awards recognise entrepreneurs, businesspeople and business owners who have written and published a book demonstrating their skill, knowledge and experience in their industry. These books allow authors to share their wisdom with current and potential clients, colleagues, and the general public. This is a rapidly growing area of publishing, and these awards recognise the very high quality of books published in this genre. 

The awards are open to books that have been produced via a traditional publishing house, through partnership publishing or self-publishing, or any other publishing method that has resulted in a professional-standard book. Books can be entered into the following categories: 

  • Entrepreneurship and Small Business

  • Social Responsibility

  • Communications and Sales

  • Personal Finance and Investment

  • Management and HR

  • Leadership

  • Technology
