Book Description
A Cup of Cappuccino for the Entrepreneur’s Spirit – find your passion and live the dream features entrepreneurs’ true short stories written to inspire, energize and teach the reader. The stories include adversities, challenges, triumphs, and successes experienced by the entrepreneur to help readers discover passion and basic principles they can use to live the entrepreneurial dream. Touching both the head and the heart, the stories feature entrepreneurs from ages 21 to 94 representing a diverse range of business types, sizes, and income levels. Stories are presented in a “can do” optimistic format, opened with relevant inspirational quotes, and closed with key success factors, recommended books, entrepreneurs’ websites, and editor’s notes. Featured entrepreneurs include Scott Klososky from Oklahoma, who sold his last company for $115M. Scott believes that building businesses is a noble act and that entrepreneurship has made the U.S. economy the powerhouse that it is. Evelyn Echols, an entrepreneur from Chicago recently celebrated her 94th birthday and is still involved in entrepreneurial ventures. Ms. Echols believes that this era is the perfect time for young people to consider entrepreneurship. Evelyn owned and operated Echols International Travel School for 35 years and just published her second book with Walter Cronkite writing the foreword. Particularly relevant in today’s economy, Katherine Sansone of SANSONE+ PR and Marketing firm in Oakland, California started a business because she was tired of being laid off and wanted to control her own destiny. She now represents notable clients worldwide and discusses changes she had to make in her business with personnel including using contract management rather than having employees. Tamara Dujmovic and Robert Sterpin, two successful entrepreneurs from Izola, Slovenia, Europe (the former Yugoslavia), discuss their business strategies and illustrate the possibilities of entrepreneurship in a society where owning a business was not an option prior to 1991. In the current economic climate, entrepreneurs must work harder than ever before to differentiate their businesses from the competition. Key success factors such as passion, customer service, relationships, work ethic, integrity, determination and perseverance are reiterated throughout the book. A Cup of Cappuccino for the Entrepreneurs’ Spirit – find your passion and live the dream will include a series of books with the first book featuring 58 entrepreneurs from five countries and 18 states within the U.S. Future books will be published as editions of A Cup of Cappuccino for the Entrepreneur’s Spirit. The series will include Volumes I, II, and III, a Women Entrepreneurs’ Edition, an Internet Entrepreneurs’ Edition, a Global Entrepreneurs’ Edition, a Disabled Entrepreneurs’ Edition, an African American Entrepreneurs’ Edition, a Native American Entrepreneurs’ Edition, a Social Entrepreneurs’ Edition, an Australian Entrepreneurs’ Edition and others. Over 50 potential editions have been identified. CDs with selected stories in the entrepreneur's voice will follow.

Masterpieces of Swiss Entrepreneurship

Languages : en
Pages : 579
Book Description
This open access book focuses on Switzerland-based medium-sized companies with a longstanding export tradition and a proven dominance in global niche markets. Based upon in-depth documentation and analysis of 36 Swiss companies over their entire history, an expert team of authors presents several parallels in the pathways and success factors which allowed these firms to become dominant and operate from a high-cost location such as Switzerland. The book enhances these insights by providing detailed company profiles documenting the company history, development, and how their relevant global niche positions were reached. Readers will benefit from these profiles as they compile a diverse selection of industries, mainly active within the B2B sector, with mostly mature companies (60 years to older than 100 years since founding) and different types of ownership structures including family firms. ‘Masterpieces of Swiss Entrepreneurship’ brings unique learning opportunities to owners and leaders of SMEs in Switzerland and elsewhere. Findings are based on detailed bottom-up research of 36 companies -- without any preconceived notions. The book is both conceptual and practical. It fosters understanding for different choices in development pathways and management practices. Matti Alahuhta, Chairman DevCo Partners, ex-CEO Kone, Board member of several global listed companies, Helsinki, Finland Start-up entrepreneurs need proven models from industry which demonstrate the various paths to success. “Masterpieces of Swiss Entrepreneurship” provides deep insights highlighting these models and the important trade-offs entrepreneurial teams must consider when choosing the path of high growth or of maximum control, as they are often mutually exclusive.
