    Can your company win by embracing a higher purpose? Yes—and this book tells you how.Few management ideas have spread so far and so wide as the Net Promoter System (NPS). Created by author and loyalty guru Fred Reichheld, companies across the spectrum have adopted it—from industrial giants such as Mercedes-Benz and Cummins Engine to Silicon Valley sweethearts such as Apple and Google to digital innovators like Warby Parker and Peloton. Why? Love. In Winning on Purpose, Reichheld argues that the primary purpose of a business should be to enrich the lives of its customers. NPS does this by putting the Golden Rule—loving customers—at the heart of enduring business success. But winning on purpose isn't easy. Reichheld explains why most NPS practitioners achieve just a small fraction of the system's full potential, and presents the newest thinking and best practices for doing NPS right. He unveils the Earned Growth Rate (EGR): the first reliable measure of what he calls "good profits."     Delivering an engaging mix of in-depth business examples and moving personal stories, Reichheld distills and advances the essentials of NPS. Winning on Purpose is the must-listen story of the management phenomenon of our time—and your indispensable guide to making NPS the key to your own company's success.

    The 7 Most Important Equations...

    Physics, chemistry, astronomy, biology; every field has its intellectual giants who made breakthrough discoveries that changed the course of history. What about the topic of retirement planning? Is it a science? Or is retirement income planning just a collection of rules-of-thumb, financial products, and sales pitches? In The 7 Most Important Equations for Your Retirement Moshe Milevsky argues that twenty first century retirement income planning is indeed a science and has its foundations in the work of great sages who made conceptual and controversial breakthroughs over the last eight centuries. 
    In the book Milevsky highlights the work of seven scholars-summarized by seven equations-who shaped all modern retirement calculations. He tells the stories of Leonardo Fibonnaci the Italian businessman; Benjamin Gompertz the gentleman actuary; Edmund Halley the astronomer; Irving Fisher the stock jock; Paul Samuelson the economic guru; Solomon Heubner the insurance and marketing visionary, and Andrey Kolmogorov the Russian mathematical genius-all giants in their respective fields who collectively laid the foundations for modern retirement income planning. 
    If you ever wondered what the point of all that high school mathematics was, Moshe Milevsky's answer is: So that you can figure out how to retire . . . while you can still enjoy your money.
