About this audiobook
Jay Steinfeld, Ernst Young Entrepreneur of the Year and the founder and CEO of Blinds.com (acquired by Home Depot), never planned to create the biggest online window blinds retailer in the world.
Against all odds to succeed, Steinfeld's journey in business included failed acquisitions, partnerships gone wrong, perpetual self-doubt, deaths in his family, corporate buy-outs, brutal market competition, and a complete disruption of industry leaders, including Amazon and big-box retailers.
To build something meaningful like Steinfeld, you need to do more than dream about it. You need to Lead from the Core.
Learn Steinfeld's "Four E's"-a set of guiding principles that help overcome any obstacle to your organization's success: Evolve Continuously, Experiment Without Fear of Failure, Express Yourself, and Enjoy the Ride.
In this book, you'll also learn specific, actionable tactics, including: how to start a business with little money and experience; ways to avoid the early failure that plagues many businesses; strategies to scale beyond the startup phase; exactly how to communicate with boards and investors; and proven lessons to attract potential acquirers of your company.
