A beacon of hope for a meaningful business world.

Struggling to find a path for a meaningful way of doing business, or going about making you life's legacy? Read this!

Simon does it again with an in depth look of what the business world should be, and could be. An idea that would pretty much make this a better world for all if the business world and the nations leader would embrace.

A must read

This book is a must read for anyone who leads in any sphere of life.

Sinek on point - as usual

Closely tied to Sinek’s other work, this book inspires to walk the talk... or if you’re missing a “why”, to help you define one that stands the test of time with a high ethical bar. Five stars. Awesome

Visionary and Courageous

Even though Simon Sinek has built on the original work of Professor James P. Carse, he has managed to package a message of courage and a vision that would not only be more sustainable and valuable to society, but to any business as well. The fact that Simon narrates the content himself is a major plus - it is not a dull reading, but full of passion and conviction. The content is thought provoking on an individual level but should also be shared and considered at a business leadership level. The life we live and the activities we engage in to sustain our journey requires a different mindset than the one most of us where taught or conditioned to accept. "Life is a journey, not a destination" the familiar quote from Ralph Waldo Emerson goes, but soon we may be saying to each other : "Life is an infinite game" as per Simon Sinek, when we want people or corporations to focus on advancing a just cause, building teams that trust, to study and welcome worthy rivals, be prepared to flex and have the courage to lead. This is the insight: we must stop aiming at a fictional "destination" where we can be declared "the winner" - there are no "winners" in business or of life!

infinite mindset

Were you inspired by this book is the closing question.
in a nutshell, yes!
Being driven by something higher and in service, can never truly be completed - it's infinite.
Thank you for the reminder Simon

Wow! I was truly impressed.

The value here is that this book is relevant to now. It shows us how leaders have been thinking. How others have been thinking and how we should be thinking if we want to continue on the path of responsibility, sustainability and longevity in our Busines lives. The infinite game.

I like the concept, was expecting more meat

The concept is good but I felt it was treated in a more general fashion than I was expecting, not very actionable.
Start with why was more concrete.

Interesting examples in business anyway

Relevant for the right thinking in business today

This book for me articulates the growing train of thinking (philosophically) required for long-term success in today’s business climate which rightly so is becoming more and more focused on the customer and matching a companies cause to its customers ethical view of what a company should do both for them and the community it serves both locally and globally...the companies that align themselves with this inspiring view are justifiably benefiting from this more and more in an “infinite” way...welcome to the brave new world...

Maybe another way to put it...companies will be richly rewarded in the brave new world by all who adopt an infinite mindset in and out of the boardroom not because they have to but because they feel compelled to do so. These same people will typically Dare to Lead their people with empathy and compassion, Multiplying their peoples capacities and turning off products and services that will “add” to the world not at its expense...this is a much needed mindset shift required in our world to tackle more than corporate greed and responsibility but a required shift from humanity itself on a personal and collective scale.

Great Listen

This book really makes you think and reasses all of your actions. Through the lense of an infinite game, the world makes more sense

Great Book

A great book by all standards. I thoroughly enjoyed every second of listening to it.
