| Summary |
This book is the inspiration you're looking for. In three major sections it shows you how to: STOP doing many of the things that were once right but are no longer appropriate, freeing up resources, allowing you to CHANGE what you are doing for better results today and then to GROW the business for a future that will excite you. The authors came together in 2003 when they co-founded Virtual Directors Limited -- a London based consultancy aimed at supporting small and medium sized businesses. They brought together 33 consultants from mixed disciplines, with talent ranging from rocket science, engineering and construction through to retail, corporate finance, HR and economics. Having also both worked on five continents, the authors have a wealth of experiences to relate in this book. As you turn the pages, you will find real life examples together with easily implemented ideas and suggestions to provide an immediate impact on your thinking and your business. |
