Publisher's Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
Why are some people and organisations more inventive, pioneering and successful than others? And why are they able to repeat their success again and again?
Because in business it doesn't matter what you do, it matters why you do it.
Steve Jobs, the Wright brothers and Martin Luther King have one thing in common: they started with why.
This book is for anyone who wants to inspire others or to be inspired.
Based on the most-watched TED Talk of all time.
Critic Reviews

An excellent book
Excellent book, insightful and very well written. Starting with Why is a powerful way to reflect on your own purpose and what motivates you to do what you do.

Some great insights
Some great insights for anyone wanting to be in, or already in, a leadership role. I felt the anecdotes were a bit repetitive and the book could have been shorter, but perhaps I was missing something. I’ll listen again to make sure. That said, the book contains 5-star ideas and is worth the time invested.

Great ideas, but so repetitive
I get it, Apple is the best company ever. Strong ideas in this book, but could have been 1/3rd of the size.

Excellent book for people leaders
As a manager in an industry where people usually just show up for work because they have to or just for the money this is a great resource in my journey to change the culture of my store and the organisation as a whole.

Great message
Very important message about the importance of knowing your "why" and Simon gives several examples from companies who succeeded or failed at showing their"why". Just know that the whole 7 hours of this audiobook is about this one message so it's a bit long winded.
