15th Anniversary Edition: How Great Leaders Inspire Everyone to Take Action

by Simon Sinek

ISN'T IT TIME YOU READ START WITH WHY? 'One of the most incredible thinkers of our time,' Steven Bartlett, podcaster and author of Diary of a CEO ----------- Simon Sinek's iconic global bestseller has sold more than three million copies by asking a simple fundamental question: Why are some people and organisations more innovative, more influential, and more profitable than others? The answer to why is another why. Leaders like Martin Luther King Jr., Steve Jobs, and the Wright Brothers had little in common, but they all started with a WHY. They realized that people won't truly buy into an idea, a movement, a product or a service until they understand the WHY behind it. With a new foreword, and updates throughout - like the importance of holding onto our WHY in a social media obsessed world - this 15th anniversary edition celebrates the simple but transformative idea that leads people to inspire greatness. ----------- 'A deep, abiding understanding of what you want to inspire, and how you want to lead is the basis of this inspirational book' Forbes

The classic playbook that will transform your approach to work From the founders of the trailblazing software company Basecamp, here is a different kind of business book - one that explores a new reality. Today, anyone can be in business. Tools that used to be out of reach are now easily accessible. Technology that cost thousands is now just a few pounds or even free. Stuff that was impossible just a few years ago is now simple. That means anyone can start a business. And you can do it without working miserable 80-hour weeks or depleting your life savings. You can start it on the side while your day job provides all the cash flow you need. Forget about business plans, meetings, office space - you don't need them. With its straightforward language and easy-is-better approach, Rework is the perfect playbook for anyone who's ever dreamed of doing it on their own. Hardcore entrepreneurs, small-business owners, people stuck in day jobs who want to get out, and artists who don't want to starve anymore will all find valuable inspiration and guidance in these pages. It's time to rework work.
