Description
This representative Slovak-language book, published on the occasion of the 150th anniversary of Tomáš Baťa’s birth, presents a selection of 149 timeless thoughts from one of the most significant figures in Czechoslovak history. It portrays Baťa not only as an entrepreneur, but above all as a person who believed in responsibility, self-improvement, service to society and the courage to create the future. Each thought is accompanied by authentic historical photographs that convey the atmosphere of Baťa’s Zlín and the life of the Baťa company. The book connects inspiring quotations with a visual story of an era that profoundly influenced modern approaches to business, education and leadership. Its symbolic “149 + 1” feature is a final blank page belonging to the reader, inviting them to become a co-creator of their own life and formulate their own thought, value or vision for the future. More than a book about history, it encourages reflection on how Baťa’s principles of responsibility, discipline, courage and humanity can be applied in the contemporary world.
