Salim Ismail wrote this book called Exponential Organizations and it was in the early days of the rise of Uber, the rise of Airbnb and he was talking about how Airbnb in its first 5 years or 10 years had access to more real estate than hotel brands that had been around for 50 years.

Exponential Organizations by Salim Ismail and Kevin Young is a business and management book that explores how modern companies leverage new technologies and strategies to achieve massive scale and exponential growth in remarkably short periods. On On Purpose with Jay Shetty, host Jay Shetty frequently recommended and discussed the book, sharing that he first encountered it around 2010 and that studying its concepts profoundly transformed his perspective. Shetty explained that the book introduced him to the vital concept of an MTP, or massive transformational purpose, which ultimately helped him discover his own personal mission of making wisdom go viral. He also noted that he was so inspired by the framework that he once invited Salim Ismail to speak at his corporate job, leaving his colleagues completely amazed. Shetty utilized the book repeatedly on his podcast to illustrate how ground-breaking enterprises like Airbnb and Uber managed to gain access to unprecedented amounts of resources and real estate in just their first few years of operation compared to legacy brands. By highlighting these fast-moving organizations, Shetty encouraged listeners to rethink traditional business models and embrace visionary frameworks designed for rapid, large-scale success in a changing modern world.
