Readers are leaders but not all the leaders are readers. Reading is good as it helps to widen someone's horizon.
Reading gives you chance to take and harness the wisdom of the authors in your life. Most great people in the world are readers.
Reading books in your chosen field makes you feels like standing on the shoulders of Giants, of course you will further other men.
The same thing goes for an entrepreneur who wants to excel in his business endeavour, he must imbibe the reading culture.
