Review<br/>Fascinating - and all the better for being digestible and readable. Business schools should study its pages (Chris Blackhurst Evening Standard)<br/><br/>Michael Hayman and Nick Giles blow apart traditional theories of business success in this landmark title on how to make it as a modern-day entrepreneur (Elitebusiness)<br/><br/>'Guerrilla upstarts ... bonafide architects of tomorrow's business-scape' (Director)<br/><br/>Good things happen when you are in their vicinity. I recommend them highly (Alain de Botton (on Seven Hills))<br/><br/>Seven Hills are a smart outfit and an exciting business (Peter Jones CBE, Dragons' Den investor)<br/><br/>Technology is fundamentally changing the way people live, work and travel and a new generation of innovative companies has emerged in recent years.

It is mission that makes successful businesses stand out, and this book shows how companies are able to define, build and communicate their purpose in order to prosper (Joe Gebbia, Co-founder and Chief Product Officer, Airbnb)<br/><br/>Mission shows how purpose has become essential to today's business leaders.
