具体描述
Chip Wilson is an entrepreneur, philanthropist, loving husband and a father to five boys. As the founder of Westbeach and yoga-inspired clothing company lululemon athletica, Chip is a globally recognized innovator in the field of technical apparel. He is widely credited with starting the “athleisure” retail category, now a $100-billion-a year global business.
At lululemon, Chip was known for his people-before-product leadership approach. He surrounded himself with like-minded individuals; creative, driven, athletic locals with a love for work-life balance inspired by the West Coast. This cohesive culture fueled the innovation and growth of the brand. In 2007, lululemon athletica was taken public and Chip remains its largest individual shareholder and biggest cheerleader.

The unauthorized story of lululemon. This is a book about ordinary people who took an opportunity to be creative, to be innovative, and to maximize their potential.
Chip Wilson's part in this story comes from the learnings of thousands of mistakes. He set the culture, business model, quality platform, people development program and then got out of the way. Lululemon's exponential growth, culture, and brand strength has few peers and it is because of those who employees who choose to be great.
This book is also about missed opportunity--five years of missed opportunity. Chip was playing to win, while the directors of the company he founded were playing not to lose.

IPO时没拿到董事会的控制权真让人惋惜
评分 评分##当一个孩子面对生存困境时，在生命的早期学会制定一种策略来帮助自己的这种情况下生存的行为就形成了。 我们过去的经验或许会抑制我们某些方面的潜能，但这会帮助我们更好的理解事物，我们过去的经历在潜意识中无形的限制了我们的可能性。如果我13岁的时候某件事在这个时间点不起作用，那并不意味着在我生命中的另一个时刻它也不会起作用。 一个品牌的身份应该足够强大，并且与它的核心客户保持一致，这样它才能为自己代言。 作为一名终身创业者，我知道在另一家公司找到一份中高层的工作即便不是不可能，也是很棘手的。在我看来，企业家太不称职了，不适合为别人工作。42岁时，我卖掉Westbeach时赚的钱还太少，不足以让我退休，但这给了我一些时间来考虑下一步的行动。
评分##In review.
评分##in review of lululemon 一个好的品牌需要创始人气质+背景+时机 从第一间公司跟着snowboarding起来开始，后半部分Chip被踢出董事会以后lulu竟然是在职业经理人的掌管下资本市场表现得直飞冲天上了个台阶也是非常讽刺。这本书竟然没有中文版？？
评分 评分##前半段太有趣了，都是干货，引人深思，令人佩服。同是游泳爱好者，有好多的体会可以对号入座，如醍醐灌顶。后面的吐槽和公开叫板，虽然是一面之辞，也带出了许许多多宝贵的经验教训。作为一个渺小的打工人，看看大佬从创业者和管理者的角度如何思考问题、带领团队，看看一个公司的文化和价值观是如何影响工作环境的，对以后的职业选择很有帮助哇。
