DC Metro area real estate team leader and philanthropist Sheena Saydam of Saydam Properties Group is an avid reader and all-around incredible human. She is a mom of three, a wife, the managing partner of DC’s #1 top-producing KW team (2022), and a prominent community activist. Her charitable efforts in her community and beyond have positioned Sheena as a respected leader and businesswoman.

When asked how she can be productive and read a book weekly, Sheena credited always having a physical book near her as one way she has prioritized reading. She says she will often take books with her on a car ride (passenger, of course), on flights, and during travel. Sheena says that besides reading while cooking (a talent in its own right), she reads 50 pages or more each night after her kids are asleep.

We are enjoying the list of 7 books Sheena recommends all productive, growth-minded leaders should read next. You can watch this video of Sheena commenting on why each of these books is among her favorites.
