Overview
Simply put, most entrepreneurial start-ups fail. Those fortunate enough
to succeed then face a second, major challenge: how to grow. This book
focuses on the key questions an entrepreneur must answer in order to
grow a business. Based on extensive research of more than fifty
successful growth companies, Grow to Greatness discusses the top ten growth challenges and how to overcome them.
Author Edward D. Hess dispels the myth that businesses must grow or die. Growth can create value. But, too much growth too fast outstrips effective processes, controls, or management capacity. Viewing growth as "recurring change," Grow to Greatness lays out a framework for how to approach business development—and how to manage its risks and pace.
The book then takes readers through chapters that explore whether the time is right to grow, how to do it, and how to manage the vital reality that growth requires the right leadership, culture, and people. Uniquely, this book aims to prepare readers for the day-to-day reality of growth, offering up the lived experiences of eleven entrepreneurs. Six workshops to assess where readers stand now and a suite of templates that will prove to be useful over time help bring the book's teachings to life. After reading this book, entrepreneurs will have a real understanding of their readiness to grow and place in the growth cycle, as well as a concrete action plan for where to take their businesses next.
Many books address how to start a business, but this is a unique, go-to resource for readers who want to learn how to thrive beyond the start-up phase.

Editorial Reviews
From the Publisher
"[O]riginal and insightful . . . Highly recommended."—S. Gove, CHOICE
"In a world where too many
business owners and investors are being taught that 'we must grow or
die,' Ed Hess provides responsible research to expose, challenge, and
disprove dangerous misconceptions about growth. Ed's findings are
beautifully packaged into this easy-to-read book. Our company has had a
great growth ride, and we keep returning to Ed's approach to guide our
next steps."—Dave Lindsey, CEO & Founder, DEFENDER Direct, Inc.
"With curiosity and unwavering conviction, Ed Hess dives deeply into
the heart of successful organizations. He illustrates the bold
strategies that make these great companies thrive. But, more
importantly, he uncovers the nuances of those strategies that truly
build the foundation for enduring success. This book will give any savvy
business leader the insights needed to achieve long-term
prosperity."—Nancy Greatrix McGough, Human Resource Director, Room &
Board"Grow to Greatness is a 'must have' reference of best practices and lessons learned by others who have successfully taken the growth journey. If you are anticipating growing your business or already on that path, this evidence-based book can be your mentor and guide at every point. Simply put: another compelling 'real world' read from Hess."—Randall J. Bufford, Founder, President, and CEO, Trilogy Health Services, LLC
