A Path to Profits, Passion, and Purpose
Tony Hsieh
The visionary CEO of Zappos explains how an emphasis on corporate culture can lead to unprecedented success.
Pay new employees $2000 to quit. Make customer service the entire company, not just a department. Focus on company culture as the #1 priority. Apply research from the science of happiness to running a business. Help employees grow both personally and professionally. Seek to change the world. Oh, and make money too.
Sound crazy? It's all standard operating procedure at Zappos.com, the online retailer that's doing over $1 billion in gross merchandise sales every year.
In 1999, Tony Hsieh (pronounced Shay) sold LinkExchange, the company he co-founded, to Microsoft for $265 million. He then joined Zappos as an adviser and investor, and eventually became CEO.
In 2009, Zappos was listed as one of Fortune magazine's top 25 companies to work for, and was acquired by Amazon later that year in a deal valued at over $1.2 billion on the day of closing.
In his first book, Tony shares the different business lessons he learned in life, from a lemonade stand and pizza business through LinkExchange, Zappos, and more. Ultimately, he shows how using happiness as a framework can produce profits, passion, and purpose both in business and in life. (edited by author)

I just heard about the passing of Tony Hsieh 💔 (CEO of @Zappos)
In my eyes he’s one of the original icons of the startup world and The Godfather of building company culture.
RIP Tony 😢
I also highly recommend reading his book “Delivering Happiness” – источникIn this fascinating and often hilarious account, the author explains how he turns his beliefs into actions that really do deliver happiness. – источник

Just saw that Tony Hsieh died tonight. I met him once. Loved his book. Read it twice. Gave it out a lot. So young. Such a shame. Visionary person. Brilliant. Sad. – источник2020-11-28T08:46:06.000Z
RIP, Tony Hsieh. As a young entrepreneur in the ECommerce space, you inspired me before DTC was even a term. You were one of the only people I can say that I truly admired. Your book inspired so much of #Girlboss. It’s a sad say. – источник2020-12-07T12:45:45.000Z
Does success too early harm?
The past few days have been hard. The shocking passing of @Zappos founder Tony Hsieh & the story of his downward spiral has made me very sad. I’m a great fan of his book “delivering happiness”.
This morning I asked myself a hard question. See pics. – источник2020-11-28T14:28:04.000Z
I thought Hsieh’s biography/business book (Delivering Happiness) was excellent — he lived a really interesting life, and ran his businesses in really interesting ways.
No doubt has inspired many 🙏 – источникTony Hsieh is a wise guy. Sincerely. He’s one of the wisest and most thoughtful business leaders of the modern age. – источник
