One of the world's most influential business executives, Phil Knight is the founder of Nike, Inc. He served as CEO of the company from 1964 to 2004, as board chairman through 2016, and he is currently Chairman Emeritus. He lives in Oregon with his wife, Penny.
"Knight writes from the heart in this young adult version of his
2016 adult memoir. The book takes readers from the beginning of his
dream ... to the creation of the internationally known,
uber-successful Nike brand. Shoe Dog reads like a great story about
how an ambition turned into a business, while at the same time it
serves as a guide for accomplishing great things." - VOYA--VOYA
