About this ebook
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.

A fantastic book written in an easy to read, down to earth format. I found this book to be fairly distracting though because mid sentence I'd start thinking about how I can influence my own company and next thing I know I'm two pages ahead and I have no idea what I just read. If you're looking to boost your companies culture this is a must read. Tour the Zappos office in Vegas if you get a chance too!

You get the whole experience of Zappos, the story begins its success and most importantly the lesson to adhere to overall. Awesome stuff!
