Tacchi Reading List - Start with why by Simon Sinek

Start with why

by Simon Sinek

Simon Sinek’s “Start with Why” TED talk is (at the time of writing) the second most viewed TED video ever. In his talk, and the book that he bases his talk on, Simon discusses the reasons for loyalty, trust, and leadership. It’s a great way to get you thinking about how you could inspire others to invest their time, money or energy in what you’re doing. Plus Simon’s charismatic presentation style is great fun to watch!
