Bo Burlingham, the bestselling author of Small Giants, returns with
Finish Big, an original guide to exiting your company successfully
and gracefully. "Finish Big is for all those founder/leaders who
want to do more than take...it is for the ones who want to leave
something behind." Simon Sinek, author of Start with Why and
Leaders Eat Last "Practical and profound, fast-moving and
thought-provoking, masterful in its clear prose and compelling
stories- Bo Burlingham has once again done a tremendous service in
deploying his craft." Jim Collins, author of Good to Great and
co-author of Built to Last and Great by Choice No two exit
experiences are exactly alike. Some people wind up happy with the
process and satisfied with the way it turned out, while others look
back on it as a nightmare. The question I hope to answer in this
book is why. What did the people with 'good' exits do differently
from those who'd had 'bad' exits?' Bo Burlingham's first book Small
Giants became an instant classic for its original take on a common
business problem: how to handle the pressure to grow. Now he is
back to tackle an even more common problem: how to exit your
company well. Sooner or later, all businesses get sold, given away,
or liquidated. Whatever your preferred outcome, if you start
planning for it while you still have time and options, you can
build a stronger, more resilient company with a higher market
value. Unfortunately, most don't - and they pay a steep price for
their procrastination. Through dozens of interviews with
entrepreneurs across a range of industries, Burlingham identifies
eight key factors that determine whether owners leave their
businesses happily. He showcases the insights, exits and cautionary
tales of entrepreneurs across an array of industries including
manufacturing, food and services. Finish Big is an illuminating and
inspirational guide to one of the most stressful, and yet
potentially rewarding, processes business owners must go through.
Bo Burlingham is the author of Small Giants: Companies That Choose
to Be Great Instead of Big, a finalist for the Financial
Times/Goldman Sachs Business Book of the Year in 2006. An editor at
large at Inc., he has reported on the entrepreneurial revolution in
America since the early 1980s and has witnessed up close the birth
and development of the companies that have reshaped our world.
