The Investor's Shelf — one person

Simon Sinek

British-American author and speaker on leadership, organisational purpose and long-term competition.

Start with Why argues that organisations communicate, sell and recruit better when they lead with purpose ahead of product, and gives that argument a structure managers can apply to messaging and hiring. Leaders Eat Last and The Infinite Game extend it to how leaders create safety inside teams and how firms compete without a defined finish line.
