  Starting a business is one thing. Making that business successful is quite another. We've all read the failure statistics of start-ups, yet we entrepreneurs are a determined bunch of people – we are not easily deterred and will try, and try, and try again.
  We are the drivers of economic growth and job creation, but sadly we are often the unsung heroes of the South African economy. With the lack of support for start-ups and absence of knowledge-sharing, being an entrepreneur is far from easy and what is missing is business guidance and mentorship.
  Mistakes are made that could be avoided. We certainly don't have all the answers all of the time, especially when we're starting out. But you know who does? Those who've been down the same path before.
  And that is where the value of this book, The Book Every Entrepreneur Has to Read, lies. It is full of sage advice, lessons learned, and thousands of hours of hard-earned knowledge from thriving entrepreneurs, covering …
  What they wish they knew when they were starting out.
  What they wouldn't do again, and the lesson learned.
  Wisdom they have picked up along the entrepreneurial journey from mindset to idea, planning to execution, funding to partnerships, networking to negotiating, innovation to strategy, hiring to company culture, social media to technology, and everything in between.
  Don't become a statistic – start reading and make notes and lists of what you can do today, to not only negotiate the sometimes hazardous entrepreneurial journey, but excel from a great idea to a successful business.

  Being the Boss - Get the Work Done

  Being the Boss starts and ends with doing the work. The role models should be Jack Welch, ex-CEO of GE; Steve Jobs at Apple; and Jeff Bezos at Amazon. They get out in front of the work and lead the charge. Only then do they assess their talent to see who to enlist to help them. This audiobook emphasizes that, even if you get the boss job because you get along with people, have leadership skills, or network well, the key is doing the work - getting the job done. And checking with your boss to be sure you are doing exactly what he or she wants. Once a day is not too often."Boss, am I focused on what you want me to be?" Few say it; hard to get very off course if you keep calibrating, says the author. The author suggests exactly what you should do on each day in week one and in your second week of bossing. Don't sit back and assess, he advises, as so many people do. Get after it, get things done, and enlist those you need to support your efforts, both people reporting to you and those that don't, inside and outside your organization.Lou Gerstner, when he became IBM's CEO, famously started by talking to customers: "What do you want? What can we do better?" He scheduled 40% of his time with customers. And lhe eft a can do, get it done, sales VP in charge as CEO when he left.The work always starts with the customer, the author points out. Start there. And he provides interesting tips about how to deal with the people reporting to you: keep the ones that can help; return the ones that can't to HR, but keep them in your budget until HR can place them elsewhere or eliminate them. Don't harm people; just move them out. And quickly. You should get this done by Friday of your first week when still in your honeymoon period with your boss. The author says he has never met an effective CEO or boss who said he or she acted too quickly in removing people. But, and this is a big but, don't harm them. Move them to HR; keep them on the budget; support their transition; just not in your shop.A great listening experience, and with humor too - not easy in a talk about bossing.
