Publisher's Summary
Penguin presents the audiobook edition of Find Your Why by Simon Sinek, David Mead and Peter Docker, read by Stephen Shedletzky and with an introduction by the author.
Find Your Why is the follow up to Start with Why, the global best seller and the subject of the third most watched TED Talk of all time. With Start with Why, Simon Sinek inspired a movement to build a world in which the vast majority of us can feel safe while we are at work and fulfilled when we go home at night. Now, along with two of his colleagues, Peter Docker and David Mead, Sinek has created a guide to the most important step any business can take: finding your why.
This easy-to-follow guide starts with the search for your personal why, and then expands to helping your colleagues find your organization's why. With detailed instructions on every stage in the process, the book also answer common concerns, such as: What if my why sounds like my competitor's? Can you have more than one why? And, if my work doesn't match my why, what do I do? Whether you're an entry level or a CEO, whether your team is run by the founder or a recent hire, these simple steps will lead you on a path to a more fulfilling life and long-term success for you and your colleagues.

How to guide
Find your Why was okay but not exactly what I expected. It is more of a how to manual than the individual guide to finding your why. It also spends the majority of time guiding group sessions.
The book still contained a number of gems which I have taken away but I wish I had read It starts with Why first.

Too much corporate focus
The book focuses too much on the corporate sector and not enough on the individual.
its also not that great as an audiobook, would be much better to read it and do the exercises as explained.

Very good sound quality for a practical tool
What did you like about this audiobook?
The tone and the rythm as well as the clear pronounciation for a non native English speaking professional made the experience highly enjoyable.
How has the book increased your interest in the subject matter?
I like the fact that the story conveys a logical and well structured script to help individuals, groups or companies to find their WHY, while the importance of the emotional piece to get the best outcome out of it is highlighted along the entire process.
Does the author present information in a way that is interesting and insightful, and if so, how does he achieve this?
No. I had only watched videos of Simon Sinek.
What did you find wrong about the narrator's performance?
Are you in?
Do you have any additional comments?
Thanks and hope shortly most of the people are in. We would have a completely different world. Much better, no doubt.

I want to like it but I can't
Simon narrates only for 10 mins max the other guys voice isn't great in fact he is annoying. I do agree with some other reviews that the book is boring and very cheesy. I did like the last book, start with why, but this one is patronising with the odd interesting forward thinking view but not enough to justify the listen. Overall it is a missed opportunity and a weak listen.

A good book, but left feeling deceived
I loved the audiobook version of Simon Sinek's "Start With Why". Accordingly, I was really looking forward to this audiobook. My first disappointment (which I could and should have known beforehand) is that it was not narrated by Simon Sinek. The narrator was fine, I had just expected it to be the author. So then I discover that the Foreword was written and narrated by Simon Sinek. I began to realise that something was afoot. After all, authors normally have someone else write the Foreword of their book. Then realisation dawned. This book does not appear to be written by Simon Sinek at all, more by two of his team. Furthermore, a large chunk of the book is basically advertising the first book. Had I not read the first book, I probably would not have felt like this, but I did and I was left with an overall sensation of feeling deceived. It is quite a good book, but it feels like false advertising to claim it is "by Simon Sinek".

Very dull and had to turn off!
I have listened to the first audio book - start with why which was superb. So I expected this to be of the same standard and a follow on but after 45 mins I had had enough it is just so slow and repetitive. Don't waste your money!

disappointing delivery
i was really looking forward to this one. it was recommended by several sources. i was sold.
It was a good start, an intro by the author. so far so good. Then the reader started. I'd get used of his voice after a bit, I thought. I didnt. It became increasingly grating. The low nasal monotone drone blended all the sounds together.
It reminded me of a broken emergency exit light.
i gave up after 15 minutes.

Practical book from the excellent ‘start with why’
Liked the format of the book and the practical guide to understanding one’s why. At times it felt the examples given were too cliche’, but generally a good guide.

Good material, tedious delivery
The material is generally good but long-winded. The delivery is tedious, a far cry from Simon Sinek's style. I'm plodding through this audio book but it is a slow and painful process instead of a joyous one.

Watch the TED Talk.
The first few chapters are beneficial but this information can be obtained from Simon Sinek's YouTube videos. also the first chapter is a very quick summation of the first book.
I would not recommend getting this book.
Like the other reviews I agree the narrator is not great, he has quite a robotic voice and this made it difficult to get through.

Ruined by the voice
Why do they always use these tinny overly American voice overs??? So annoying. Simon Sineks voice is much better.

Would recommend this as a written book.
After listening to this, I think it would have been better for me to read the written version as there’s a lot of links and activities that needs to be done and personally I find it harder to having to rewind audio. In terms of narration, I’m not sure if Simon refers to himself in third person in the book but the narrator refers to him as “Simon Sinek” all the time , I would have preferred first person. Overall I think it’s a great book and everyone did a great job but in hindsight I think this would be better to read as a physical book.

Great read - time for action
What a fabulous tool kit that will help so many answer the question that Simon ignited in his previous books.
I myself am inspired by Simon to help others find thier why and an advocate for the discovery process.
Thanks for some fabulous material to support that

Hmmm not sure
I think his Ted talk got lots of people in. But really it’s about so much more than a why sentence, or two/ Also not really clear if he actually wrote this or his two business partners..?

Dug Deep
This book provides a good framework for digging deep into finding your why.
It is not a book which will tell your ideal job/career. It is a book about connecting with you and what makes you, you. Your why and what you believe in, your values and natural strengths.
I enjoyed working through the book and audio to reach my Why!

The perfect sequel to "start with why"
So many self help books are a bit vague. Opening up your mind to new possibilities but without any plan of attack to put them into action. This book is not one of those. It details a step by step process of the why discovery. I'm very excited to put these steps into action.
