Summary of Richard Sheridan's Joy, Inc. - E-book - ePub

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I was hooked on programming computers, and I was hired to do it as a job my freshman year of high school. I was 13 years old. I loved it. I was paid to do the thing I loved as a hobby. #2 I was promoted to vice president of research and development of Interface by CEO Bob Nero in 1997. I was in a trough of disillusionment, and I couldn't leave the field because I had no joy in it anymore.
I had two choices: change the industry or get out. I chose change. #3 I had a realization that night after being thrown out of Bob Nero's office. I decided to find a way to love my job and my industry again, and make it better. I began to live out my personal values at work. #4 I had the CEO, the board, and a partner. I only needed to convince my team of programmers to change.
