"Wow" has never been so perfectly expressed as it has in the new book by the Zappos CEO Tony Hsieh.
I love business books and they have a way to influence me even in my sleep. Its funny, witty and interlaced with moments of inspiration like how he wrote a sonnet in school with morse code.
The book is about his life, inspiration, struggle and the pressures of dealing with Asian parents. What I like the most is the fact that it is written so simply and yet is so powerful. It’s real- there are no theories, no rules, no charts and diagrams that you have to follow. It’s simply the passion and the belief that it will happen.
I think the book is amazing because the passion comes through.
I couldn’t stop reading it and as a way to spread the happiness ended up giving away one of my copies hoping that it will change them too, the way it did to me (Yeah, I have more than 1 copy because I applied as a blogger and got 2 copies and the wow factor came in yesterday, when I had the hard bound final book mailed again).Wow!
I have always been a fan of Zappos, I like how they do things and it got me into buying a shoe from them (see picture).
So, if you are bored with your job or need something inspiring to read or is witness to your organization falling apart- read the book it might change you forever.
If you are a project manager- you will pick up some amazing team building tips and learn the importance of building the team culture and how it can affect productivity. Dreams do come true; with a lot of passion, hard work and the right group of friends (or team)!
Happy reading everyone! To know more about the book, you can follow at @DHBOOK
