The Infinite Game
From the New York Times bestselling author of Start With Why and Leaders Eat Last, a bold framework for leadership in today’s ever-changing world.
How do we win a game that has no end? Finite games, like football or chess, have known players, fixed rules and a clear endpoint. The winners and losers are easily identified. Infinite games, games with no finish line, like business or politics, or life itself, have players who come and go. The rules of an infinite game are changeable while infinite games have no defined endpoint. There are no winners or losers—only ahead and behind.
The question is, how do we play to succeed in the game we’re in?
In this revelatory new book, Simon Sinek offers a framework for leading with an infinite mindset. On one hand, none of us can resist the fleeting thrills of a promotion earned or a tournament won, yet these rewards fade quickly. In pursuit of a Just Cause, we will commit to a vision of a future world so appealing that we will build it week after week, month after month, year after year. Although we do not know the exact form this world will take, working toward it gives our work and our life meaning.
Leaders who embrace an infinite mindset build stronger, more innovative, more inspiring organizations. Ultimately, they are the ones who lead us into the future.

Simon Sinek's favorite reads of 2019
I love words and the English language. I love finding out where words come from and, in this case, why the dictionary is the way it is.
Inspiration exists in unlikely places. Like with Bruce Deel, it was an honor to publish Summer’s book. Who knew that by learning how to take care of plants better, we could learn to take care of each other better?
When I first met Bruce Deel I was blown away by his story. He is one of the most inspiring people I’ve ever met and it was an honor to be able to publish his book so that other people could enjoy his story as much as I did.
This book challenged me to see the world completely differently and inspired me to pursue what it means to have an infinite mindset.
