Summary |
"A proven system for creating a compelling growth plan. There are 15 million businesses in the United States, and 13 million of them don't utilize a planning process, thus inhibiting their chance to grow. Having a planning process is the most reliable predictor of whether a business will grow. Yet, most planning books and most planning processes are not accessible or usable for the small to medium-sized business owners. The One Hour Plan for Growth provides a proven system for any business to create a clear and compelling business growth plan that fits on a page in about one hour. This book is a quick read and easy to comprehend, and results in a plan that fits on a page and is used to keep people focused and productive. Covers the six essential elements of the dynamic business growth plan: Vision, Mission, Values, Objectives, Strategies, Priorities. Previously the top-rated speaker for Stephen Covey's organization, the author is now a successful speaker and consultant with some of the world's finest small and mid-sized companies. The book delivers a proven planning process that engages employees, develops leadership capacity, improves performance, and accelerates growth"-- Provided by publisher |
