Zappos, a new kind of corporate culture, a new way of making money




Art of Joyful Living show

Summary: Join us today as we unveil a new programmatic initiative of The Art of Joyful Living Radio show! We are highlighting companies that have incorporated their humanity into their business models and, as a result, have become wildly successful. What better way to begin than with Zappos? Zappos is one of the most successful, forward thinking, progressive companies in the world. Established in 1999, Zappos.com has quickly become a leader in online apparel and foot ware sales by providing shoppers with the best possible service and selection. Early on in its history, CEO Tony Hseih and his partners decided that the path to profits would begin with the company’s culture. What did this mean for Zappos? How about a company that applies the science of happiness to running a business, believes in and delivers on helping its employees grow personally and professionally, creates positive change by delivering happiness to the world, and while they’re at it, generates more than a billion dollars a year in sales? We believe that Zappos represents the new money paradigm for the 21st century. The Zappos’ story has valuable business lessons for everyone, from staff, to business owners, to entrepreneurs.
