It is a book about what to do, what not to do, and why. For your business, it could be that one piece of advice that makes all the difference . . . and even give you a few laughs along the way.
Whether you are a young company that’s just starting out or a mature business looking to grow, Bob Pritchett’s hands-on advice and practical examples are a must-read for every manager, business owner, and entrepreneur.

If employees quit, or were hit by the proverbial bus, we would find a way to address any real issues related to their sudden absence--we would have to, because their departure date would be out of our control.
The past is also out of our control; we can't go back and not make the hire, not spend on the training, or not create a "mission critical" job function. By firing we can at least make today the day we start investing in the future instead of continuing to waste resources and to delay the inevitable.
