Tony Hsieh became involved with Zappos as an advisor and investor in 1999, about two months after the company was founded. He eventually joined Zappos full time in 2000. Under his leadership, Zappos has grown gross merchandise sales from $1.6M in 2000 to over $1 billion in 2008 by focusing relentlessly on customer service.

The visionary CEO of Zappos explains how an emphasis on corporate culture can lead to unprecedented success.
Pay new employees $2000 to quit. Make customer service the entire company, not just a department. Focus on company culture as the #1 priority. Apply research from the science of happiness to running a business. Help employees grow both personally and professionally. Seek to change the world. Oh, and make money too.
Sound crazy? It's all standard operating procedure at Zappos.com, the online retailer that's doing over $1 billion in gross merchandise sales every year.
In 1999, Tony Hsieh (pronounced Shay) sold LinkExchange, the company he co-founded, to Microsoft for $265 million. He then joined Zappos as an adviser and investor, and eventually became CEO.
In 2009, Zappos was listed as one of Fortune magazine's top 25 companies to work for, and was acquired by Amazon later that year in a deal valued at over $1.2 billion on the day of closing.
In his first book, Tony shares the different business lessons he learned in life, from a lemonade stand and pizza business through LinkExchange, Zappos, and more. Ultimately, he shows how using happiness as a framework can produce profits, passion, and purpose both in business and in life.

在新浪围脖上看到李开复的推荐使我有兴趣关注这本关于创业、关于激情、关于幸福的书。书一上手就被谢家华Tony幽默的风格所吸引,而幽默的人通常是聪明的,聪明人对于创业、对于人生的内省与思考是我所喜欢的。 越来越多的年轻人正在投身于创业,或者至少考虑过创业。而Tony从童...
评分美丽新世界 幸福是衡量一切的最高标准,美捷步把这一原则演绎得淋漓尽致。在《CourageToTeach》一书中,教育家Parker Palmer曾这样写道,“在一个把痛苦和工作绑在一起的文化里,最好的行业应该就是寻找幸福的行业了。”把工作和努力与痛苦绑在一起的恶习,已经深深地影响了我...
评分前一阵子,圈儿里不少朋友都在看这本书,豆瓣上的评价也很高,加之出版社在各平台上的宣传攻势,于是不能免俗也买本看看。 豆瓣上有人说,书中所讲的运营模式、经验理念虽然靠谱,也确实是真知灼见,但知易行难,并不是每个企业都能借鉴、施行的。真是这样吗?这更刺激了我的好...
评分看这本书的感觉和看这本书的介绍的感觉,完全不同。看这本书的感觉与看这本书的前言(是作者的父亲写的)的感觉完全不同。 看这本书的介绍,这是一个多么辉煌的人生,24岁,微软以2.65亿美元的价格收购他创办“链接交换”公司;25岁,作为顾问及投资人,成立了卖鞋的...
评分《三双鞋》(Delivering Happiness)这本书中英文两个版本我都读了,很感动,所以想说点什么。 原本是想了解电子商务的传奇Zappos的历史,读了以后却发现有关商业的东西倒是其次的了。 这是谢家华的个人传记,有大部分关于Zappos的历史,因为那是他倾注心血的企业。创业过的...
对高分表示不解。。。
评分这是我十多年来读过最好的书,也许是因为我也在创业的途中。我在想中国的文化那么早熟但是为什么现在中国人的心智为什么这么不成熟,外国二十岁就有我们三十甚至四十岁的水平,大家的聪明才智,精力是不是都用在了考试上了吧,用在升官拍马屁,尔虞我诈,吃吃喝喝,考tofel,gre了吧,等我们三四十岁时已经无力改变什么了。我们是什么都不相信除了名利,我们的成长和环境是不是有问题。
评分论写作水平,真的跟畅销的记者写的书差的有点远。但是论故事和创业经历,值得一读。
评分前面讲故事看得挺好玩,只是感觉他写书的时候还太年轻,包括他早期没有清晰的目标,只是追着钱跑,但是大多数人都如此。由此而来的他个人思考和转变还是挺值得看。后半部分加入企业文化就看得我经常想跳过了,虽然有些员工的故事挺好玩,但是写作风格不一样,与整体有断裂感。
评分For an individual, character is the destiny; for an organization, culture is the destiny
