Simon Sinek sparked a movement with his bestsellers START WITH WHY and LEADERS EAT LAST. Now this beautifully illustrated book will inspire more readers to ask for help, help others, and discover their own courage through a charming story about change.
 
Life is a series of choices. Do we go left or right? Jump forward or hold back?
 
Sometimes our choices work out for the better…and sometimes they don’t. But there is one choice, regardless of every other decision, that profoundly affects how we feel about our journey: Do we go alone or do we go together?
 
It is the courageous few who ask for help. It is the giving few willing to help others. We can all find the courage we need and know the joy of service – the minute we learn that together is better.
 
Filled with inspiring quotes, this richly illustrated fable tells a delightful story of three kids who go on a journey to a new playground and take a stand for what they believe. The story is a metaphor for anyone looking to make a change or wondering how to pursue their dreams. And the message is simple: relationships – real, human relationships – really, really matter. The stronger our relationships, the stronger the bonds of trust and cooperation, the more we can accomplish and the more joy and fulfillment we get from our work and personal lives.
 
The three heroes are archetypes who represent us all at various points in our lives. Their main challenge is the same one we face every day: How can we find the things we’re looking for? According to Sinek, if we each do our part to help advance a shared vision, we can build the world we imagine.
 
In addition to the story itself, Sinek shares such profound lessons as: 
 
· A team is not a group of people that work together. A team is a group of people that trust each other.
 
· Fight against something and we focus on the thing we hate. Fight for something and we focus on the thing we love.
 
· Working hard for something we don’t care about is called stress. Working hard for something we love is called passion.
 
· A star wants to see himself rise to the top. A leader wants to see those around him become stars.
 
Together is Better was designed to be given as a gift to someone you want to inspire, or to say thank you to someone who inspires you. It's completely different from Sinek's previous work. It may look like a children's book, but it's definitely for adults.

This book includes a special page featuring the Scent of Optimism.

Great Book - Dirty Warehouse
5 Stars
Great Book - Dirty Warehouse
Five stars because I know Simon reads these and his work is inspiring and extremely helpful when trying to explain the challenges companies face and how simple the fix really can be. Important to include is the other reviewers are right - the book comes with quite a bit of dirt on the cover which is disappointing. It looks second-hand and like it’s seen better days. I replaced the original book that came dirty and had a new one sent to me that came just as dirty and torn. I wouldn’t mind as much if when you remove the cover, the hardcover binding had the same graphics and title as the paper cover but it does not. Also, there’s no scent to the book - not something I was dying to have but again, something I know was important to the book’s message from watching countless videos of Simon’s talks and interviews.

I gave this book as a gift to someone I know who had a big change in job duties without any increase in pay or offer of training. Simon has excellent ideas and information on management, leadership and all around exceptional advice for anyone who has a job, or just wants to be effective and have meaningful relationships.

I saw a quote in a work email about people debating whether the glass is half full or empty, and how those people are missing the point, the glass is refillable... I was curious hand looked into the person that gave the quote. I was immediately inspired by the author, Simon Sinek. I bought this book to help inspire my husband. He’s 49 this year with a bachelors degree but hates his job. His degree did not end up putting him in the direction he wanted. He has talked about going back for a masters, but it’s been all talk as he continues to struggle with motivation because of fear. I introduced him to the Ted Talk to finding your why... and within an hour he came up with a great and deep why. I bought this book for our 18th anniversary today, in May will be out 11th married. We are a team, and our company is our home. So this book can be seen in so many lights. Whether it’s your team at work, your team at home, your team of friends, your college team, etc... I hope he loves it, as this may have been the most thoughtful gift that comes straight from my heart.

I just ordered a second book for my 19 year old daughter, that grew up with her father. She lacked the kind of love and support a parent should give until she was 15 when we found each other... yes, I hadn’t seen her for 9 years... anyway, she wants to do college alone, and I think it’s great... but I have also been opening her up to new ideas and to being able to accept support. She listens and loves when I can show her new ways to ease her mind, and I think this will be a great addition to her college apartment.

4.0 out of 5 stars It is written as if like a children's story book
Reviewed in the United States on May 9, 2018

Interesting book. It is written as if like a children's story book. Simon Sinek is a very good leadership and motivational writer, and he does not disappoint in this book. Most concepts discussed the importance of dependence on your team and perseverence in hardships, and it spoke it so elegantly with the beautiful handdrawn illustrations. I guess the only kind of book I can relate this one to is "Who Moved My Cheese?" where the writer takes technical concepts and metaphorically weaves it into the storyline to make it entertaining and meaninful for the reader. Mr. Sinek does this very well in this book. The book also has a characteristic smell to it that in my opinion is woody, and bold.
That with stating, I did not learn any new concepts in this book, only that he spoke the concepts in a different way and possibly for a specific audience.
I had originally purchased because i wanted to use this book as one of my groomsmen gifts, but it is best left to give to a young colleague or college graduate trying to find his way in his career.

Okay, let's be real, if you LOVE Simon Sinek, you'll love this book. It's a quick 5-10 min read. Each page is an inspirational quote or topic that follows an illustrated story. Very abstract but you get the gist pretty quickly. If you take the tame and focus on one page at a time you get a deeper meaning to each step.

My favorite part of the whole book was the scratch and sniff page. I have NO idea why. It shocked me when I came across that page, and was like REALLY?!? Then after reading the entire book, I went back and scratched the smelly page again. lol It ended up being a highlight of the book for me. That and the perception change of the children as the story progresses.

Super cute idea and I liked the concept of this book.

Um livro sobre princípios que, à primeira vista, podem parecer ingênuos e utópicos em um mercado de competição e lutas. Mas... a vida não precisa ser encarada como uma metáfora de guerra. Podemos seguir desejando e desejantes por um espaço na vida e nos negócios que seja relevante para todos e todas. Super recomendo a leitura.
