In From 50 to 500, the authors identify key characteristics of small companies with the potential for rapid growth. Using this perspective, they present a highly relevant, easy-to-understand and actionable model, defining the motivators, capabilities and potential derailers unique to small business leaders. Readers are then invited to explore the distinct business challenges two typical leaders face over a business cycle. Opportunities to evaluate each leader' s decisions and outcomes provide valuable insights into their effectiveness and impact, and tools are provided to strengthen leadership effectiveness and achieve improved organizational results.
' As a small company grows, it faces distinct challenges. A new form of leadership is critical for success. This is the first book I' ve read that speaks directly to those leaders--explaining the most important moves these leaders must execute. A must-read for leaders of growth businesses. ' --Henrik Ekelund, Founder & CEO of BTS Group, an international strategy implementation and leadership development company ' Before becoming a Fortune 100 executive, I experienced both success and failure in creating and running small companies. I wish then, as a young entrepreneur, I had the benefit of "From 50 to 500," an easy-to-read, practical guide with insights for the long run. ' --Thomas Ramey, Director at Axis Capital. Honorary Trustee of the Brookings Institute, former Chairman of Liberty International - Liberty Mutual Group ' From 50 to 500 represents a comprehensive, highly functional toolbox for the small business leader. The book is loaded with valuable insight, relevant business cases, and motivation to learn, grow, and succeed. Small businesses function and execute best as a team, and teams are best led by intelligent and adaptive leaders. Leaders willing to learn and evolve. The book' s well-thought-out success narrative serves as a blueprint for positive change management. I strongly encourage people considering a new venture, developing a new business, and scaling an early-stage company to buy this book! Once you do, dog-ear the pages, take notes, and enthusiastically apply the tricks and tools the authors generously provide for the reader. If you do, you will achieve new heights, and your employees and customers will thank you!' --Marty Strong, Navy SEAL Officer (retired), CEO & Chief Strategy Officer at LGS Management Group. Author of Be Nimble ' I wish this book was around when I was building and leading my small company. There is not a thing that did not resonate with me--it put words to my experiences. As a small business entrepreneur and an organizational psychologist, the High Impact Leadership Model is a perfect framework to articulate what it takes to be successful, not just for me but for my leadership team. The three Development Domains and the self-assessment tool have just the right level of insight and practicality to be used by the novice and experienced leader alike. ' --Sandra B Hartog, Ph. D. , Founder of Fenestra Inc. ' We found ourselves nodding our heads in acknowledgment of the challenges inherent in founding and growing a business. The authors have hit on many familiar problems and agonizing decisions. Reflective and honest readers will certainly benefit from the insights offered in these pages. ' --John Nury, Founder of Circle R Safety and David Nury, Leader of Circle R Safety, D&D Leasing, LLC. , and Beth' s Barricades
