Just saw that Tony Hsieh died tonight. I met him once. Loved his book. Read it twice. Gave it out a lot. So young. Such a shame. Visionary person. Brilliant. Sad.

Saying that Tony Hsieh “revolutionized the shoe business” misses the point entirely.
He revolutionized the being human in business business.
No less.

RIP Tony Hsieh of Zappos.For those of us who published business books in the 2010-2013 time period, the success of Tony’s book “Delivering Happiness” was the case study in how to build a movement around a book.
