His first book, Start With Why, offered the essential starting point, explaining the power of focusing on WHY we do what we do, before getting into the details of WHAT and HOW. Start With Why became an instant classic, with a loyal following among Fortune 500 companies, entrepreneurs, nonprofits, governments, and the highest levels of the U.S. Military. Now Sinek is back to reveal the next step in creating happier and healthier organizations. He helps us understand, in simple terms, the biology of trust and cooperation and why they're essential to our success and fulfillment. Organizations that create environments in which trust and cooperation thrive vastly out perform their competition. And, not coincidentally, their employees love working there. But \"truly human\" cultures don't just happen; they are intentionally created by great leaders. Leaders who, in hard times, would sooner sacrifice their numbers to protect their people, rather than sacrifice people to protect their numbers, are rewarded with deeply loyal teams that consistently contribute their best efforts, ideas and passion. As he did in Start With Why, Sinek illustrates his points with fascinating true stories from many fields. He implores us to act sooner rather than later, because our stressful jobs are literally killing us. And he offers surprisingly simple steps for building a truly human organization\"--\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBiographical Note\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSimon Sinek \u003c\/b\u003eis an optimist and the bestselling author of \n\u003ci\u003eStart With Why, Leaders Eat Last, Together Is Better\u003c\/i\u003e, and \n\u003ci\u003eFind Your Why\u003c\/i\u003e.

This is not a crazy, idealized notion. Today, in many successful organizations, great leaders create environments in which people naturally work together to do remarkable things. \n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn his work with organizations around the world, Simon Sinek noticed that some teams trust each other so deeply that they would literally put their lives on the line for each other. Other teams, no matter what incentives are offered, are doomed to infighting, fragmentation and failure. Why? \n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe answer became clear during a conversation with a Marine Corps general. \"Officers eat last,\" he said. Sinek watched as the most junior Marines ate first while the most senior Marines took their place at the back of the line. What's symbolic in the chow hall is deadly serious on the battlefield: Great leaders sacrifice their own comfort--even their own survival--for the good of those in their care. \n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eToo many workplaces are driven by cynicism, paranoia, and self-interest. But the best ones foster trust and cooperation because their leaders build what Sinek calls a \"Circle of Safety\" that separates the security inside the team from the challenges outside. \n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSinek illustrates his ideas with fascinating true stories that range from the military to big business, from government to investment banking.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sinek, Simon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Portfolio\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePub Date:\u003c\/b\u003e 2017-05-23\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC:\u003c\/b\u003e Business \u0026amp; Economics \/ Leadership|Business \u0026amp; Economics \/ Workplace Culture|Business \u0026amp; Economics \/ Organizational Behavior\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSubjects:\u003c\/b\u003e Organizational change|Corporate culture|Leadership\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.7 lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781591848011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eASIN:\u003c\/b\u003e -\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSKU:\u003c\/b\u003e SP-9781591848011\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Portfolio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67820902514969,"sku":"SP-9781591848011","price":32.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0913\/0380\/5209\/files\/9781591848011_spiral.png?v=1792134602","url":"https:\/\/westbindery.com\/products\/leaders-eat-last-why-some-teams-pull-together-and-others-dont","provider":"West Bindery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
