Start With Why by Simon Sinek explores the power of purpose in leadership and business. Sinek argues that successful leaders and organizations start with “why”—their core belief or purpose—before figuring out the “how” and “what.”
Through examples from companies like Apple and leaders like Martin Luther King Jr., Sinek illustrates how focusing on “why” can inspire others and drive long-term success.
