Why write a book when you only have content to fill a 10 page folder?

If you love 'Start with Why' written by Simon Sinek, you will love this book. This book tells you how to apply 'Start with Why' concept to your life or your organization. Strongly recommended.

The book is written as a workshop guide on how to discover your WHY, HOW and WHAT which was established in the Start with Why book by Simon Sinek. I don't think the publication of this book was necessary since even though I have read this book I still can't validate the theories proposed in it. To do that, I would need to attend a workshop or do the assessment with someone. Any takers from those who read it? Some of my takeaways: At its core, the WHY is an origin story. Who we are is the sum tot...

After "Leaders Eat Last" I thought that Simon Sinek will be the next Dan Pink. But he isn't (at least for now). I didn't like his prior book ("Start with why"), I've found it too obvious & shallow (endless rambling about the very simple idea that doesn't require as much elaboration). I do realize that I am clearly not the perfect target for the book (I never had problems with intrinsic motivations), but my idea was to use it to help others, not myself.What about Simon's most recent book then? "F...

This book has an explanation of how to use Simon Sinek's Golden Circle to create your why statement. Why do you do what you do? I love the idea that "happiness comes from what we do; fulfillment comes from why we do it." He also states that leaders are responsible for creating an environment in which staff feel they are part of something bigger than them selves. The greatest contribution of a leader is to make other leaders. If every member of a team doesn't grow together, they will grow apart.

I enjoyed the main idea of this book which is the importance of finding the reason behind your life, behind your job, behind basically every single thing that you do. Once your find YOUR WHY it will be much easier for you to wake up in morning, withstand long working hours or adapt to your stressful life style because to you it all has a goal and a reason.I have to admit, every once and while I think I need to remind myself of my OWN WHY which really helps me go back on track!All in all it was a...

“If we want to feel an undying passion for our work, if we want to feel we are contributing to something bigger than ourselves, we all need to know our WHY.” If this isn't a perfect example of beating a dead horse, I don't know what is. So boring, repetitive for such a short book. Also riddled with platitudes that are supposed to help you find you why. After all, a happy worker is a productive worker. You're wasting away on your feet, hustling hard so that corporate giant can make mo

The book is good, and the core idea of WHY discovery is nice. But IMHO the content could be reduced in half without losing anything important.

“Our struggles are the short-term steps we must take on our way to long-term success.”Have you ever found yourself thinking about what your purpose in life is?That is probably the number one important question you should be asking yourself now. It might not be a question you think about every day, but it is an essential one for you to figure out.Whether you think you have figured out your purpose in life or not, the book I’m going to analyze today will no doubt help you to narrow down and put in...

This is just so bad + it could have been much shorter but instead we go on and on in circles so they can just sell more unnecessary pages. The only reason I finished this book was: once I got to the first half I felt sorry that I wasted 2 hours of my life for nothing so I thought I might as well finish the damn thing in order to count it as a full book in my reading goal.

I'm a big fan of "Start With Why" which is why I picked this one one. It's structured as a guide to finde your why and the why of groups in general, such as entire companies and/or individual departments.I'm giving it 3 stars because though I have finished the book, I haven't yet been able to validate the method. Once I do, I'll review the rating.

Summary: I'm glad it was short. This is an attempt to create a commercial version of Sinek's book Start with Why. Weird b/c his seminars are already commercial. This workshop is just too corporate and misses everything I liked about the first book.Sinek partners with a few people to write this book and it shows and it feels disjointed as a result. This might work if you are a structured person who needs to meet with others to better understand who you are and why you are doing things. He's tryin...

This book could be 10 pages, since 90% of it is "See chapter XX in Start with Why for more on this topic.". I remember Start with Why: How Great Leaders Inspire Everyone to Take Action and Leaders Eat Last as nice books, but I have to admit that after watching an interview about the "Millennials" with Simon Sinek, I became a bit skeptical about his theories, he is too self assured that everything falls into his theories, that every single behavior has an explanation (that he specifically holds),...

"A 4 Star Listen with a 5+ Star Read"Be prepared to sit down and take notes and pause this book several times if you want to get the full value of this book. This is why I rated it less than a five. This is also why you should read the book to get the valuable priceless knowledge. The knowledge you will gain and the insight you will grasp is worth more than 5 stars. Now you get the reason for my title. I won't spoil the details because any thing I say beyond this is like having a friend tell you...

Great listen on a short road trip today. Greater still for those running a team or larger organization. For the solo-preneur there are still several actionable items. But not a lot of meat on the bone for the one-person shop.

Often do I enjoy listening to the wisdom of Simon Sinek, but this book isn't worth the time.

"Find Your Why" is the companion book to Sinek's best seller "Start With Why." In this book the authors walk you through specific ways to identify your why, whether for an individual or team/organization.From a personal standpoint, I really liked the team approach. I felt it was sound especially if your organization or team doesn't have a governing why. When it came to the individual why, I was less enthusiastic. I understand the purpose of sharing your personal stories with another person, I'm

It was a great book. If Start with Why gives us hopes and feel motivated, this book is the instrument or the way to make it happen. It is just hard for me to understand the steps like the discussion of groups. For me, finding your why may be a journey and not a group discussion. Still, the stories of this book gives are great. Cheer up!P.S. While hanging washed clothes today, i am still thinking what i really wanted to be in the future. I cried...and it's amazing. I think if finally found my WHY...

I read Start with Why and Find Your Why back to back over just a few days. Sinek’s famous Ted Talk (Presented in 2009, it has over 33 million views.) was so powerful to me that I had to see where he was with it now.The man has a theme. He calls it the Golden Circle: Why—How—What. Why is the reason. How is the means. What is the result. They all have to be in balance, driven by the why, and when they are, you will achieve authenticity and success.The theme hasn’t changed. In terms of the Start wi...

FYI It didn't take me 3 years to read this. Actually I didn't read it all. I started in 2018 and somehow it didn't cause the impact on me that I was getting in the zeitgeist. Simon Sinek is sufficiently well known for his inspiring quotes, and persuasive talks. He is good in synthesizing complex ideas and making them easy to consume and digest. This book is another good example. He has one good idea and he repeats it over and over in three different contexts: individual, tribes, organizations. (...
