Frameworks for Fast Growing Companies
January 5, 2009 1 Comment
One of the hardest things to do for a fast growing company is to get everyone aligned and on the same page. One business guru said successful businesses are 1% vision and 99% alignment. Here are some good books for entrepreneurs once they get past $1 million in revenue:
- Mastering the Rockefeller Habits
This is one of my favorites and does a good job of being very practical and tactical. - Six Disciplines for Excellence
I just bought this one but haven’t started it yet. I’ve heard good things about it. - The Four Obsessions of an Extraordinary Executive
This is another very good book for entrepreneurs.
What are your thoughts? What books do you recommend?
Seth Godin’s Purple Cow is a quick don’t-be-like-everyone-else guide and an easy read. Malcolm Gladwell’s books including Tipping Point were great. Geoff Moore’s Crossing the Chasm is vital for me.
