The Infinite Game
The Infinite Game by Simon Sinek is a book that contrasts finite business thinking with infinite mindset strategies focused on long-term sustainability.
Recommended“One of our board members gave me this book called the infinite game and it's the original infinite game book. There's some follow-ons from it about like how to implement the infinite game, so I forget the original author. So, there's a book by Simon Sinek which is the infinite game.”
