Over six millions copies sold worldwide. Translated in over 35 languages
DID YOU KNOW: After becoming Microsoft's CEO "One of the first things he [Satya Nadella] did was give all senior executives a book. A "required reading" for leadership, Nadella's gesture was the first sign of a monumental transformation for Microsoft's brand and company culture.
