Annotation:
In the ONE MINUTE ENTREPRENEUR, Ken Blanchard, in collaboration with Don Hutson and Ethan Willie, presents a judicious balance of concise business tips and personal attributes essential for starting a business. Blanchard uses the story of a fictionalized entrepreneur who encounters the many challenges that can overwhelm first-timers, as he offers key "pillars of wisdom" that can serve as guideposts: Sales must exceed expenses; Collect your bills; Take care of your customers; Take care of your people. ||Since many (or most) businesses fail in the first year, it's important to learn from others who have been through the experience, and THE ONE MINUTE ENTREPRENEUR is intended to help. Blanchard's many fans over the years have appreciated his common-sense, supportive approach.
| Author Bio| Ken Blanchard | | Ken Blanchard has a B.A. and a Ph.D. from Cornell University, and an M.A. from Colgate. After college, he was a teacher and administrator, and, in 1979, he and his wife, Marjorie (whom he met at Cornell), founded a training consulting firm in California. In 1981, from his experiences with his clients, Blanchard co-wrote (with Spencer Johnson) THE ONE-MINUTE MANAGER; originally self-published, it went on to sell over a million copies. Since then, he has written several more best-sellers (always with coauthors) in related fields. His books are short, crisp, practical, and full of stories, emphasizing flexibility and team playing--the human side of the business world. In addition to writing, Blanchard is also a sought-after motivational speaker, and has been an avid golfer since he began playing with his father at the age of 6. |
