How do we win a game that has no end? Finite games, like football or chess, have known players, fixed rules and a clear endpoint. The winners and losers are easily identified. Infinite games, games with no finish line, like business or politics, or life itself, have players who come and go. The rules of an infinite game are changeable at the same time as infinite games have no defined endpoint. There are no winners or losers—only ahead and in the back of.
The question is, how do we play to reach the game we’re in?
In this revelatory book, Simon Sinek offers a framework for leading with an infinite mindset. On one hand, none of us can face up to the fleeting thrills of a promotion earned or a tournament won, yet these rewards fade quickly. In pursuit of a Just Cause, we will be able to commit to a vision of a future world so appealing that we will be able to build it week after week, month after month, year after year. Even though we have no idea the exact form this world will take, working toward it gives our work and our life meaning.
Leaders who embrace an infinite mindset build stronger, more innovative, more inspiring organizations. In the long run, they’re the ones who lead us into the future.
