Summary: "Why are some people and organizations more innovative, more influential, and more profitable than others? Why do some command greater loyalty from customers and employees alike? People like Martin Luther King Jr., Steve Jobs, and the Wright Brothers might have little in common, but they all started with why, which enabled them to inspire those around them and to achieve remarkable things. This concept provides a framework upon which organizations can be built, movements can be lead, and people can be inspired." -- from the jacket cover
