Build: An Unorthodox Guide to Build Things Worth Making

Tony Fadell

Written for anyone who wants to grow at workโ€”from young grads navigating their first jobs to CEOs deciding whether to sell their companyโ€”Build is full of personal stories, practical advice and fascinating insights into some of the most impactful products and people of the 20th century.

Each quick 5-20 page entry builds on the previous one, charting Tonyโ€™s personal journey from a product designer to a leader, from a startup founder to an executive to a mentor. Tony uses examples that are instantly captivating, like the process of building the very first iPod and iPhone. Every chapter is designed to help readers with a problem theyโ€™re facing right nowโ€”how to get funding for their startup, whether to quit their job or not, or just how to deal with the jerk in the next cubicle.
