WHO WE ARE

We are a like-minded group of professionals from various business and management backgrounds, who got together to form a book discussion group. This book group is distinctive, in the sense that we wanted to provide a forum where we could meet with the authors of business and management books to discuss their books with them.

We felt that it would encourage practising managers to read and appreciate new and innovative ideas in business and management books, and to be able to challenge authors with new and radical ideas drawn from books discussed.

MEMBERSHIP

Membership is by subscription, and we welcome practising managers from all spheres, who enjoy reading and are willing to participate in an open discussion, share their ideas, and network with other managers.  We meet quarterly to discuss a book chosen by members on a current management or business topic they would like to discuss, or an author whose book they would like to read.  Some books are recommended by publishers with whom we work.  

NEW MEMBERS

New members are welcome, but numbers are limited! We want to maintain the intimacy of a small group so that all can participate in the discussions, which are held quarterly. Full members pay an annual subscription, non-members can pay for a single attendance. Please register if you would like to attend the discussions.

  • The CSNet Book Discussion Group will meet on Tuesday 6 October 2026, at 6.00 pm to discuss, “SuperSkills: The Seven Human Skills for the Age of AI”, by Rahim Hirji, who will be joining us for the discussion.

    Rahim Hirji is the founder of the Super Skills Intelligence Company, and an advisor on AI, work and human judgement. Rahim’s book “Super Skills”, is a realistic examination of how to remain human within the AI driven world. Based on his family’s history of survival, he describes skills they learned to negotiate their lives, such as risk taking, trust building, communication, etc., the steps all humans have to take. These he identifies as our super skills, which we need to retain as we partner with machines without forsaking our human skills. To explore his ideas in more depth, please come along and meet Rahim, who will lead the discussion and take questions about his book.

    You are invited to join the discussion and share your ideas at our next event scheduled for Tuesday 6 October 2026, 6.00 – 7.30 pm on Zoom.
