书籍简介：

Finally in paperback: the New York Times bestseller by the acclaimed, bestselling author of Start With Why and Together is Better. Now with an expanded chapter and appendix on leading millennials, based on Simon Sinek's viral video "Millenials in the workplace" (150+ million views). Imagine a world where almost everyone wakes up inspired to go to work, feels trusted and valued during the day, then returns home feeling fulfilled. 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. In 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? The 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. Too 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. Sinek illustrates his ideas with fascinating true stories that range from the military to big business, from government to investment banking.

书友短评：

@ 郭少 这个作者的上一本书我给了5星，虽然那一本其实是完全围绕一个点写成的一本书。但是这一本我实在是基本没有收获。要总结起来，这本书就是在说，你要成为合格的leader，就得对员工好，就得以身作则，就得具有各种良好的品质。可是这些似乎本身就是self-explanatory的。此外经过一段时间的实际经历，现在看这种书就会感觉到一股浓浓的理想主义气质，大量时候都是在讲道理，例子也都是非常common和remote的。现在我已经深深的认识到，当面对真实情景时，更多时候的主要问题根本就不在作者讨论的这些方面，换句话说这本书基本脱离实际。相比而言，我对《The Phoenix Project》这本书就非常推崇，这本书讲的才是真实情景中的一个个可能会遇到的问题。 @ 康庄主义 The true meaning of the term “leader” can be found within the word itself: you must lead people in a certain direction, showing them the path and giving them a purpose to walk on it. And on that path, the leaders need to follow last in line to ensure that every member of the group makes it to the end. @ Sheryl 4.8 stars @ 瞎思考的咸鱼君 别在追求效率和“卓越”的过程中忘记了基本的生物性和人性。
