The Challenge: There are lots of books about start-ups and scale-ups, but not many great books. And many of those books are focused on tools. We want to write a great book focused on methods any company can use.

Cycles: The simplest, proven way to build your business.

Based on 3 years of research with over 300 companies, cycles is about how to grow faster with lower risk by getting the ABCs of growth right.

Core Message: “There are companies that succeed and companies that fail. The biggest difference between winners and losers, is smart winners make good, even mediocre, ideas great over time.”
