"You're going to sell what? Empty Boxes?"

Back in 1978, Kip Tindell (Chairman & CEO of The Container Store) and his partners had the vision that people were eager to find solutions to save both space and time - and they were definitely onto something. A new category of the retailing industry was born - storage and organization. Today, with stores nationwide and with more than 5,000 loyal employees, the company couldn't be stronger. Over the years, The Container Store has been lauded for its commitment to its employees and focus on its original concept and inventory mix as the formula for its success. But for Tindell, the goal never has been growth for growth's sake. Rather, it is to adhere to the company's values-based business philosophies, which center on an employee-first culture, superior customer service and strict merchandising. The Container Store has been named on Fortune magazine's "100 Best Companies To Work For" list for 15 consecutive years. Even better, The Container Store has millions of loyal customers.

Tim Askew of Inc.com said, “To put it briefly, Uncontainable is the best book about creating a corporate culture since Danny Meyer's [←Missouri native] Setting the Table. . . Tindell is a member of the growing cadre of company leaders in the ‘conscious capitalism’ movement. I highly recommend any business owner with an interest in efficacious corporate culture put Uncontainable on the must-read list.”

We hope you, too, might pick up Uncontainable — it is a great and entertaining look into one of America’s most admired companies, not just for the products it sells, but for the culture it has created.
