具體描述
In this candid and riveting memoir, for the first time ever, Nike founder and CEO Phil Knight shares the inside story of the company’s early days as an intrepid start-up and its evolution into one of the world’s most iconic, game-changing, and profitable brands.
In 1962, fresh out of business school, Phil Knight borrowed $50 from his father and created a company with a simple mission: import high-quality, low-cost athletic shoes from Japan. Selling the shoes from the trunk of his lime green Plymouth Valiant, Knight grossed $8,000 his first year. Today, Nike’s annual sales top $30 billion. In an age of startups, Nike is the ne plus ultra of all startups, and the swoosh has become a revolutionary, globe-spanning icon, one of the most ubiquitous and recognizable symbols in the world today.
But Knight, the man behind the swoosh, has always remained a mystery. Now, for the first time, in a memoir that is candid, humble, gutsy, and wry, he tells his story, beginning with his crossroads moment. At 24, after backpacking around the world, he decided to take the unconventional path, to start his own business—a business that would be dynamic, different.
Knight details the many risks and daunting setbacks that stood between him and his dream—along with his early triumphs. Above all, he recalls the formative relationships with his first partners and employees, a ragtag group of misfits and seekers who became a tight-knit band of brothers. Together, harnessing the transcendent power of a shared mission, and a deep belief in the spirit of sport, they built a brand that changed everything.
用戶評價
##印象最深的還是 1971-1975的部分，一直有那麼多讓人為它的命懸一綫而屏息凝神的時刻。很多讓我想起我們當時在領導力計劃時看John Adams的感受——那些後來看起來意義重大的曆程，其實哪裏有那麼多肅穆齊整的時刻，都是踉踉蹌蹌、跌跌撞撞，在各種混亂與捉襟見肘中籌措應對（scramble），拖著腿走、滾、爬、往前行，然而就這樣堅持下來。
評分##寫得太感人瞭，一點架子也沒有，發自內心，最後我看哭瞭

評分##This book has everything! This book is everything! Gosh, I laughed and cried.
評分##its like reading a novel, but in a very genuine way, it makes me laugh and makes me cry.
評分耐剋創始人迴憶錄，一群shoe dogs的堅持成就瞭今日的耐剋。耐剋前18年是跌宕起伏的18年，與鬼塚虎的恩恩怨怨，與銀行的博弈現金流的枯竭，甚至遇到政治阻力，精彩紛呈。1962年，奈特先生去日本Kobe(神戶)與鬼塚株式會社談判代理Tiger牌運動鞋事宜，後來科比和老虎都成為耐剋最具影響力的代言人，冥冥之中有天意
評分##有趣且誠實：Luck plays a big role. Hard work is critical, a good team is essential, brains and determination ave invaluable, but luck may decide the outcome. 不知道我是不是唯一一個關注Fujimoto, Phil從Onitsuka收買的間諜, 在東窗事發後下場如何的人...
評分##The cowards never started and the weak died along the way. Best memoir I've ever read by a businessman. Just unlike so many memoirs, it's focus on the beginning years of Nike, from 1962 to 1980, and have never weighted in the success of the company in the coming years. A must read book.
評分##上班路上聽到Phil Knight說二兒子齣生，自己第一反應是有瞭a pair of sons的時候直接笑齣聲來，真真是shoe dog.
