Simon Sinek's recent video on 'The Millennial Question' went viral with over 150 million views.

Start with Why is a global bestseller and the TED Talk based on it is the third most watched of all time.

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?

In business, it doesn't matter what you do, it matters WHY you do it.

Start with Why analyses leaders like Martin Luther King Jr and Steve Jobs and discovers that they all think in the same way - they all started with why.

Simon Sinek explains the framework needed for businesses to move past knowing what they do to how they do it, and then to ask the more important question-WHY?

Why do we do what we do? Why do we exist? Learning to ask these questions can unlock the secret to inspirational business. Sinek explains what it truly takes to lead and inspire and how anyone can learn how to do it.

a good idea, but unpolished and underdeveloped

23 November 2017

I think the idea at the centre of the book is interesting and corroborated by neuroscientific knowledge about decision making. Unfortunately I also think that the book struggles to go beyond intuition and convert the idea into a fact based theory. The book could have conveyed the idea with less repetition and more effort into fact finding and checking. The lack of fact checking is also evident in the incorrectness of some examples and quotes. I think the idea points to a more complex reality than the one suggested. To summarise, a good idea, but unpolished and underdeveloped.

Repetitious. Repetitious. Repetitious.

Content in and of itself is find. Nothing particularly ground-breaking. Wasn't a fan of all the capitalisations of 'WHAT', 'WHY', and 'HOW' although it got the point across.

By the end of it I thought I was just reading the same thing over and over again so if I had the choice, I wouldn't have bought it and left after reading the sample.

Simple yet profound

We are all conditioned to focus on What, which drives competition and creates a sense of scarcity. If we started with Why, and focused on achieving our personal best every day, there would be a sense of abundance and collaboration.
How is all about competence, which is crucial and there are no short cuts.
A simple model, which if followed will deliver amazing results.

All time classic book, every person in business should read it. Understanding a company’s Why is fundamental to success. The book uses a lot of good examples to explain. Highly recommended.

Somethings when put simply can have the most impact. This book speaks to the reason I'm pursuing my entrepreneurial dream. I would recommend this book to everyone. I would have it as required reading by all those I employee.

Loved it

Simon Sinek articulated everybody's deepest desire in figuring out those "why" questions. I am sure the ideas in this book will transcend to every aspect of your life; It will help to clarify why you do what you do.

Love this book. I knew we had something special in our business with an average 7 year staff tenure and never lost a customer. Just couldn't put my finger on what it was. Now I can leverage our WHY as we move into a new phase. It also gives me confidence in focusing on being a WHY person and bringing HOW and WHAT people around me.
