Create a World-Class Work Environment

Professional development and team building are essential to cultivating your company’s most valuable asset—your employees. New ideas can change the way your employees approach problem-solving and improve productivity. Create a world-class work environment by offering employees a way to network with colleagues while sharpening their critical thinking skills. 

Bring authors of new books to your organization and learn directly from the
source! Hooks Book Events enables organizations to host interactive, shared learning experiences through conversations with authors of new, nonfiction books.

More cost-effective and memorable than typical training, invest in continuous learning for your team.

How It Works

CHAT_logoicon_REV
Use our Know Ahead List as a guide to choose the authors and/or topics that coincide with what you want to bring to your organization. We will help you every step of the way in creating a book event or author series that fits the goals and directives of your company or agency. Hooks Book Events is happy to work with you to find the perfect topic for your group.

Books can be delivered to a single office location or multiple locations, or participants can receive a redemption code through the Parnassus Books website and have their books shipped directly to them at no additional cost.
PEOPLE_logoicon_REV
Whether it is an in-person event or a virtual event, we will manage the event with you and the author. For virtual events, this includes a pre-event practice call with the author to prepare specific content and technology needs for your audience.

Parnassus Books for Business will join the event on your company’s video conferencing platform or host it for you on our own platform to ensure everything runs smoothly.
