I.D.E.A. to Exit: An Entreprenurial Journey,
This review is from: I.D.E.A. to Exit: An Entrepreneurial Journey (Paperback)
Jeff Weber's book is unique in that does not fit neatly into a genre. It tells a story like an autobiography, provides step-by-step instructions for starting, operating, and exiting a business like a technical manual, and provides an in-depth examination of the mental, emotional, and physical challenges entrepreneurs must overcome.The book's framework is structured around four key elements; I.D.E. A. The I stands for Innovation; the D stands for Desire; the E stands for Effort; and the A stands for Ability. Jeff believes there are three fundamentals necessary for business success; Scaling (economies of scale), Innovation and Leadership. As readers follow Jeff's footsteps on his journey from start-up to a fairy-tale exit when he sold the company and became a millionaire, they discover what an entrepreneur must learn, think, feel, and do if they want to enjoy similar success. Jeff seasons his practical business stew with relevant research, references and a generous portion of philosophy. For example, when he addresses the 800 pound gorilla in the room for every would-be entrepreneur; risk, he defines its origins. Risk comes from the 16th century Arabic word "rizk", meaning "to seek opportunity". Readers who are looking for the nuts and bolts ingredients for a successful business will not be disappointed. The book is full of practical advice and step-by-step instructions on what information entrepreneurs will need to obtain; what actions they need to take, what resources they need to have available, what they will be required to do in order to fund the business, and what systems and procedures they will need to establish for operations. So, if you are an aspiring entrepreneur or a business owner looking for a detailed road-map for success, I recommend Jeff Weber's book, "I.D.E.A. to Exit: An Entrepreneurial Journey<[...]>." This is not a quick read - it is over 400 pages. However, I suspect you will enjoy it.
5.0 out of 5 stars
