But why do some companies experience phenomenal growth year after year, regardless of changes in the marketplace, new technologies, fierce competition, and demands from shareholders, while others seem to hit a plateau or find themselves scrambling to keep up with the pack? Employing a powerful, field-tested diagnostic tool -the Inc Growth Strategy Analysis - and showcasing dozens of colourful case examples, the author shows entrepreneurs and established business leaders alike how to analyse their organisation's growth potential, identify the internal constraints to future growth, and put into practice th strategies that will enable them to break through to new levels of expansion and profit generation. | | | Product Details: | | | Author:

Good Road Map.Jul 11, 2005
By Joseph E. Sniezek
"josephsniezek"
This book aims straight at the roots of growth. In the beginning of the book, the author first helps you determine at what stage of the cycle your company is in, then he tells you what your focus should be, such as sales for a start-up, and establishing systems once sales are stable. Very sensible.
The author then goes on to explore general strategy themes, but each chapter has at least a few gems.
I recommend the book for your library shelf. Each re-read will provide you with helpful wisdom.
The most practical approach to achieving growth.May 10, 1999
By chmack@Ameritech.net Jim Wood's book is for every person who has considered, is considering, or should consider taking themselves and their business above and beyond. Wood approaches the topic of "how to grow" as if he and you were sitting next to one another on an airplane. Casually talking about his experiences, all the while drawing you in to details only someone who has "been there, done that" can do. Read this book and expand your business and personal horizons. -- C.H. Mackey
Hits the nail on the head.Mar 15, 1999
From startup to INC 500 to FORTUNE 500, this book is a good first step in identifying what other pieces of information are needed to move up the ladder. Feels like a bird checking out the economic landscape. When you need to descend to the ground, this book will help you find which spot you have missed. Quite valuable as an entrepreneurial roadmap!
