Welcome to a virtual book club designed specifically for technical women. Global Tech Women selects books requested by the community on topics of interest for women around the world and provides regular meet-ups for us to gather virtually at convenient hours, network and learn from one another. We provide a summary and discussion for those who don't have time but are interested in the topic and a discussion for those who do!

Our seventh Book Club selection, Leaders Eat Last: Why Some Teams Pull Together and Others Don't, by Simon Sinek, starts with the biology of individual achievements and social interaction and how this translates to teams that have tapped into this physical experience while others flail and struggle to achieve cohesive abilities.

Simon Sinek an unshakable optimist, is the author of the bestselling book Start with Why, which challenged traditional assumptions about how great leaders and great companies inspire people. He has shared his ideas with companies big and small, members of Congress and the highest levels of the U.S. military. His TEDTalk based on Start with Why is the second most popular video of all time on TED.com. He lives in New York City. Read more about Simon on his website.


"Leadership is not a rank or a position, it is a choice - a choice to look after the 
person to the left of us and the person to the right of us"- Simon Sinek

Book Review: Simon Sinek’s “Leaders Eat Last”

Picture
Kristen Hadeed | January 30, 2014 | Business Magazine Gainesville
"
Sinek shares a frightening statistic — over 80 percent of people are dissatisfied with their jobs. It’s the job of leaders to do our best to create cultures where people feel loved, safe and fulfilled. The best companies understand the value and the values of the people they employ. They start with the premise that our leadership is there to serve the employee, not the other way around. Sinek shines a light on a path toward building a business that can provide a more stable human environment that benefits all employees while reaching for shared excellence. That’s the kind of business we should be interested in building, and that’s why I highly recommend Simon Sinek’s “Leaders Eat Last.”"
