À propos de cet audio

Now a Hulu feature film directed by Eva Longoria

Read the story everyone is talking about: how a janitor struggling to put food on the table invented Flamin’ Hot Cheetos in a secret test kitchen, breaking barriers and becoming the first Latino frontline worker promoted to executive at Frito-Lay.


Richard Montañez is a man who made a science out of walking through closed doors, and his success story is an empowerment manual for anyone stuck in a dead-end job or facing a system stacked against them.

Having taken a job mopping floors at Frito-Lay's California factory to support his family, Montañez took his future into his own hands and created the world’s hottest snack food: Flamin’ Hot Cheetos. This bold move not only disrupted the food industry with some much-needed spice, but also shook up a corporate culture in which everyone stayed in their lane. When a top food scientist at Frito-Lay sent out a memo telling sales and marketing to kill the new product before it made it to the store shelves—jealous that someone with no formal education beyond the sixth grade could do his job—Montañez was forced to go rogue once again to save his idea. Through creative thinking, community building, and a few powerful mindset shifts, he outsmarted the naysayers who tried to get in his way.

Flamin' Hot proves that you can break out of your career rut and that your present circumstances don't have to dictate your future.

I was going to give this book a mixed review because I found the frequent psych101 (actually preschool psych, you know, like "You can be anyone you want to be!", etc.) sidebars irritating and patronizing. I did however enjoy the story of the creation of the product, his problems with others' jealousy and attempted sabotage, etc. However, a quick search finds that old Richard, according to Frito-Lay had nothing to do with the creation of Flamin' Hot anything! Oh well, he did climb from janitor to boardroom, that much is true and it's a great story, but, it seems, just a story.

Inspiring "story", but...
