Why do you do what you do?

Why are some people and organizations more innovative, more influential, and moer profitable than others? Why do some command greater loyalty from customers and employees alike? Even among the successful, why are so few able to repeat their success over and over?

People like Martin Luther King Jr., Steve Jobs, and the Wright Brothers might have little in common, but they all started with why . It was their natural ability to start with why that enabled them to inspire those around them and to achieve remarkable things.

In studying the leaders who've had the greatest influence in the world, Simon Sinek discovered that they all think, act, and communicate in the exact same way -- and it's the complete opposite of what everyone else does. Sinek calls this powerful idea The Golden Circle, and it provides a framework upon which organizations can be built, movements can be lead, and people can be inspired. And it all starts with WHY.

Any organization can explain what it does; some can explain how they do it; but very few can clearly articulate why . WHY is not money or profit-- those are always results. WHY does your organization exist? WHY does it do the things it does? WHY do customers really buy from one company or another? WHY are people loyal to some leaders, but not others?

Starting with WHY works in big business and small business, in the nonprofit world and in politics. Those who start with WHY never manipulate, they inspire. And the people who follow them don't do so because they have to; they follow because they want to.

Drawing on a wide range of real-life stories, Sinek weaves together a clear vision of what it truly takes to lead and inspire. This book is for anyone who wants to inspire others or who wants to find someone to inspire them.

读后感

久闻“黄金圈”大名，终于见到出处，但书名不是“黄金圈”，而是《超级激励者》，为什么？“为什么”是一种符号，是一种象征，或说一种精神。因为心中有理念的人，他们自带强大磁场，吸引同频率的人到身边，他们就是就是超级激励者。 “黄金圈”可应用于各种领域，包括本书侧重...  

较为快速的阅读完本书，很赞同作者的观点。之前对此观点有意识但还比较模糊，看完本书，觉得确实对于工作首先要想清楚为什么而做。尽量把这个为什么的理由升华到信念的高度，将之贯彻到工作之中，始终以此作为工作的原因、理由。不偏离、不为利益等其他因素所干扰，坚持这一工...  

今天听完了《start with why》这本书，作者用Apple、the Wright brothers、Martin Luther King等作为例子，来引出他所提出的The Golden Circle 这个概念。 大部分的普通人、公司，都是由外入内，由最明确的，到最含糊的：What -> How -> Why，而历史上最著名的伟人、公司，...
