Their natural ability to start with why enabled them to inspire those around them and to achieve remarkable things. Sinek calls this powerful idea The Golden Circle, and it provides a framework upon which organizations can be built, movements can be led, and people can be inspired. Those who start with why never manipulate, they inspire. This book is for anyone who wants to inspire others or who wants to find someone to inspire them.. And it all starts with why.

Sinek is an awfully repetitive and, frankly, unskilled writer. He lays out his thesis and then repeats it like a rower repeats his stroke. As he drags out the book to whatever number of wo
