Description
In this fascinating book, Seth Godin argues that now, for the first time, everyone has an opportunity to start a movement - to bring together a tribe of like-minded people and do amazing things. There are tribes everywhere, all of them hungry for connection, meaning and change. And yet, too many people ignore the opportunity to lead, because they are "sheepwalking" their way through their lives and work, too afraid to question whether their compliance is doing them (or their company) any good. This book is for those who don't want to be sheep and instead have a desire to do fresh and exciting work. If you have a passion for what you want to do and the drive to make it happen, there is a tribe of fellow employees, or customers, or investors, or readers, just waiting for you to connect them with each other and lead them where they want to go.
Reviews / Votes
Tribes is a must read for all of us. It's up to each one of us to lead in today's new kind of world -- Former US senator Bill Bradley Tribes is a short book - only 147 pages. But its short size belies its true importance. As I read it, I was literally underlining every other sentence. I went through two highlighters before I finished! This is one of the most important books I have read this year.I highly recommend it -- Michael Hyatt Godin's simple manifesto for success and happiness is inspiring * Financial Times * Godin's simple manifesto for success and happiness is inspiring. * FINANCIAL TIMES *More details
