NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER The New York Times-bestselling author of Start With Why, Leaders Eat Last, and Together Is Better offers a bold new approach to business strategy by asking one question: are you playing the finite game or the infinite game? In The Infinite Game, Sinek applies game theory to explore how great businesses achieve long-lasting success. He finds that building long-term value and healthy, enduring growth - that playing the infinite game - is the only thing that matters to your business.
In Start with Why, Simon Sinek explained the power of focusing on Why we do what we do, before getting into the details of What and How. Now he's back to reveal the next step in creating happier and healthier organisations. Organisations that create environments in which trust and cooperation thrive vastly outperform their competition. But 'truly human' cultures don't just happen; they are intentionally created by great leaders. Sinek illustrates his points with fascinating true stories, and offers surprisingly simple steps for building a truly human organisation.
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.
