There are many definitions for a great book, but here is one: you're burned out on responsibility books. They've become a slog to get through, the unread pier has grown, and you've gotten into the uniform of reading a chapter or two and deciding whether they're usefulness sticking with (sorry, ""). You kit a copy of "" by Zappos CEO and lay it with you over Memorial Day weekend, planning to give it a tot but with no hope that you will do so. And then you closing it in two days.
"Delivering Happiness" is not a characteristic work work by any extent of the imagination. Part autobiography, factor party of the Zappos culture, part excitement yarn. Will Tony have to furnish his loft apartment so Zappos can backstay in business? Will the Wells Fargo data of credit come through? We be informed the ultimate answer, but the peregrination is still fun. Hsieh's story can also be decipher several different ways.
How was he able to physique and sell two different companies for 9- or 10-figure sums? Is he artlessly smart, driven and lucky? Or does he other catch on and get the idea things at a level deeper than the lie of us? A strength of the enlist is Hsieh's willingness to acknowledge the contributions of others to the ascendancy of the companies he has worked for. He gives a great deal of confidence to Sanjay, his consort on his first venture, LinkExchange, and in the Zappos sections gives spacious airtime to coterie CFO Alfred and rocker merchandiser Fred (last names? I don't remember. Hsieh calls them by their premier names exclusively).
Stories from Zappos employees are employed to demonstrate the plc core values. So, distinct other CEO autobiographies, you get the plain sense from "Delivering Happiness" that Hsieh's companies were not one-man shows.
