Summary:
"The inside story of the
rise
and
fall
of
WeWork
, showing how the excesses of its founder shaped a corporate culture unlike any other. Christened a potential savior of Silicon Valley's startup culture,
Adam
Neumann
was set to take
WeWork
, his office share company disrupting the commercial real estate market, public, cash out on the company's 47
billion
dollar
valuation, and break the string of major startups unable to deliver to shareholders. But as employees knew, and investors soon found out,
WeWork
's capital was built on promises that the company was more than a real estate purveyor, that in fact it was a transformational technology company. Culminating in a day-by-day account of the five weeks leading up to
WeWork
's botched IPO and
Neumann
's dramatic ouster, Wiedeman exposes the story of the company's desperate attempt to secure the funding it needed in the final moments of a decade defined by excess."
