(Our poll tied twice\, and th is is part two!) Here's the book in a nutshell\, according to the handy Amazon description: "\;In 2009\, Simon Sinek started a movement to h elp people become more inspired at work\, and in turn inspire their coll eagues and customers. Since then\, millions have been touched by the pow er of his ideas\, including more than 28 million who’ve watched his TED Talk based on START WITH WHY -- the third most popular TED video of all time. Sinek starts with a fundamental question: Why are some people and organizations more innovative\, more influential\, and more profitable t han others? Why do some command greater loyalty from customers and emplo yees alike? Even among the successful\, why are so few able to repeat th eir success over and over? People like Martin Luther King Jr.\, Steve Jo bs\, and the Wright Brothers had little in common\, but they all started with WHY. They realized that people won't truly buy into a product\, se rvice\, movement\, or idea until they understand the WHY behind it. STAR T WITH WHY shows that the leaders who've had the greatest influence in t he world all think\, act\, and communicate the same way -- and it's the opposite of what everyone else does. Sinek calls this powerful idea The Golden Circle\, and it provides a framework upon which organizations can be built\, movements can be led\, and people can be inspired. And it al l starts with WHY."\; Let's ponder and talk about how asking WHY wil l help us or hinder us on our agile journeys.
