Feature

ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Phil Knight is the founder of Nike, Inc. and one of the most well-known business leaders in the world. From 1964 until 2004, he was the company's CEO. From 2015 to 2016, he chaired the board of directors. Currently, he is Chairman Emeritus.
ABOUT THE BOOK: Phil Knight's story is finally told in Shoe Dog. At the age of 24, he thinks he would rather start something entirely new, exciting, and distinctive than work for a large organization. He describes the various difficulties he faced, the heartbreaking defeats, the vicious rivals, and unfriendly bankers—as well as his many spectacular victories. Above all else, he thinks back on the relationships with Bill Bowerman and his initial workers that helped to shape Nike's soul.
