Tony Hsieh's (pronounced "Shay") book Delivering Happiness is
fascinating as he writes about his personal journey that leads to the
success of building Zappo's into one of the world's leading online
retailers. He shows how a different kind of company culture and company
brand can bring about success and a win-win-win scenario for customers,
company and employees together. He writes in an easy flowing, accessible
way that makes his story one you want to follow and see what happens
next! Covering Tony's personal story, the creation of Zappo's and its
culture and the period following the sale of Zappos to Amazon.com for
$1.2 Billion in 2009, Tony demonstrates how personal and business
happiness can co-exist. Many companies have traveled the road that leads
from good to great, but few know how to manage the curves that keep
them safely on that road. Reading Delivering Happiness makes one truly
believe Tony Hsieh has laid the foundation that will keep Zappos safely
traveling down that road of Greatness.

— Ron, Los Angeles

Description

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.
