Tony Hsieh
Successfully grow your business and improve customer and employee happiness with this New York Times bestseller book written by the CEO of Zappos. As the CEO of one of Fortune Magazine's "Best Companies to Work For," Tony Hsieh knows that keeping people happy is the key to professional growth and harmony. It might sound crazy, but Hsieh believes that we can prioritize company culture, make money, and change the world. In Delivering Happiness, he shares the tools of the trade he's learned in business and life, from starting a worm farm to running a pizza business, to working at Zappos–a company so impressive that Amazon acquired it for over $1.2 billion. Fast-paced and down-to-earth, Delivering Happiness shows how a different kind of corporate culture is a powerful model for achieving success, and concentrating on the happiness of those around you can dramatically increase your own.

"This book was a pleasant surprise. In the first 50 pages I almost stopped reading, there was no adversity, no conflict, all success. Moving past into the dot com crash and eventual 2008 financial crash, I loved the transparency that Zappos showed to their employees and picked up various lessons and tools I can apply to my own work and teams. <br/><br/>If you are looking for a book to help improve company culture, help understand company culture and/or improve outside of company interactions, this is a must read. <br/><br/>"

"My favorite quote from the book "Looking over the crowd, I realized that every person took a different path to get here, but our paths somehow all managed to intersect with one another in the here and now." I love when a quote about a business can also be about life in general."
