Five years ago, short-track skater Apolo Ohno became the most decorated US athlete in Winter Olympics history, midfielder Andrés Iniesta helped bring Spain its first World Cup title, and GiveForward co-founder Ethan Austin met Zappos founder Tony Hsieh. Lifelong dreams were fulfilled on all accounts. At an event, Austin spoke with Hsieh, one of the leading minds on and practitioners of values-based culture. Not coincidentally, that year marked GiveForward’s first employee hire and its relentless devotion to its culture.
