Book Description

July 16, 2007
I’ve never met a CEO who was really happy with the way business development was working. They all end up saying the same thing. “Traditional solutions fail to produce expected results while regularly generating unexpected costs. There needs to be a better way.” Amazing Pace shows you how to turbo-charge business development. Over decades of experience as a CEO, board member and senior advisor, I have developed a unique approach to turbo-charging business development. It involves: 1) a board of advisors, which is populated by very senior people who are dedicated to driving the top line; 2) a different approach to resourcing and organizing a company’s senior management team; and 3) an approach that focuses on building revenue in large chunks. This book will show you how it’s done. It will also help you avoid the pitfalls and leverage the strengths of your company. Read on—this really works!

This review is from: Amazing Pace: Turbo-Charged Business Development (Paperback)
Dr. Smith has written the best book on creating, recruiting, managing, and benefiting from advisory boards. Although I have personally used these boards in the past, Dr. Smith's book gave me several good ideas and validated many of my personal experiences and views about the use of advisory boards for startup and growth companies. I highly recommend this book. Dr. Richard P. George

5.0 out of 5 stars Gret Read, September 28, 2007
This review is from: Amazing Pace: Turbo-Charged Business Development (Paperback)
"What a great read! You portrayed the process of achieving excellence in an organization with wonderful detail. From the challenge to the resolution, I found myself identifying strongly with the efforts. The roll out of the material was well ordered and an easy read. I could empathize and relate strongly from the facilitations I've done over the years. I'm encouraged by the language and style of your efforts and your ability to relate the details concisely noting several key philosophies we have in common, especially the preparation, strategic and holistic approaches. It really is challenging to get people out of their boxes, even when popping the lid off will catapult their success. I absolutely love the work." Zen Benefiel, MBA, MAOM, CLC, CH

5.0 out of 5 stars Understanding the power of the Board of Advisors, August 22, 2007
This review is from: Amazing Pace: Turbo-Charged Business Development (Paperback)
"The book is great! It gives perspectives that are not only enlightening but the flow of the book stimulates the thought process associated with building a truly successful business. It is direct for those willing to open their minds and understand that they are not the single greatest business authority. This book provides a refreshing view of the dual process involved between the CEO and the expert on how to take a company to the next level - the level of success!" David Dougherty, Vice President, Public Sector, RWD Technologies
