There’s no one path to reach the top—least of all in entrepreneurship. Every business owner is on his or her own journey, and the proper steps for one industry aren’t necessarily right for another. But listening to good advice—or, heck, even heeding it—is never a bad idea. That next bit of guidance might well help you scale both today’s maddening challenges and those you’ve yet to face.
The best move of all? Don’t do this alone. All climbers need a sherpa, and you want to scale the Seven Summits—not fall into Chapter 7. So to help you tackle your challenges, we’ve enlisted dozens of highly successful entrepreneurs and executives for their advice on running, building, and growing a business. Hard-won lessons on everything from fine-tuning your leadership style to delegating like a pro to retaining your top-tier talent. Even tips on taking some me time—because it’s hard enough to lead by example, but harder still when the example you’re setting is of how to exhaust yourself along the way.
Now slip on your loafers, step into your sneakers, or strap into your heels—and let’s get ready to climb.
Good hiring and management are key to operational success and how these founders have propelled their businesses' impressive growth.
