Becoming the Best is Launched!
Idea Platforms is thrilled to announce that Richard M. Schulze, the legendary founder of Best Buy, has privately published his first book, Becoming the Best: A Journey of Passion, Purpose, and Perseverance. Becoming the Best chronicles Schulze’s journey of founding Best Buy, the contributions made by employees, family, and friends who were indispensable to the company’s extraordinary growth and success, and the many lessons learned as Best Buy became the world’s largest consumer electronics firm.
Idea Platforms, Inc. worked with Schulze to develop Becoming the Best, and to package the book. IPI helped create a paperback version, an abridged audio book, a digital book available in three file formats, and a limited edition hard cover version that is cloth-bound and hand-numbered.
