This is an uplifting book!

It's also logical and detailed but not slow or repetitive.
 
This book reflects on all these ethical companies or decisio s that made them succeed. 

Some of the companies made mistakes and failed. But other companies made mistakes and when they turned it around to more proactive positive decisions, and ethical decisions... Then they rescued the company I

Overall, it felt a little idealistic and yet was inspiring because it's chock full of historic examples of companies doing the right thing and benefiting and succeeding because of it.


And the examples and data show why and how those worked both financially and socially.

Also it covers government history and decisions and all the examples towards community benefiting decisions that I hope and want to be the way governments, companies and institutions would work.. But most don't look at this infinity investment.. Most are in fixed short term thoughts and poor short term decisions.

Although I do enjoy Simon Sinek’s ideas and books, his writing is often repetitive. This organization makes me feel as if I’m reading a textbook at times, getting a summary of the chapter at the end of the chapter or section. Aside from that, I think the concepts he presents can relate to how finite thinkers have tried to micro-manage public education. This work has inspired me to research how the Just Cause of public education began and how it’s been manipulated over time. Perhaps we can work together to revitalize the Infinite Game for teaching and learning.

This book outlines that if we have a fixed and finite mindset then we will get stuck and not be able to move our business by it’s just cause. Good perspective shifting book about what a company is called to do. Could be picked up in one of his podcasts.

It started off feeling like a set of cherry-picked business cases to support the author's thesis. Then it moved into a few intriguing business cases I hadn't heard of before, which was fairly cool, but it ended on a flat note again. A decent idea but, even though it was fairly short, it was far longer than it had to be.
