The Business Jet Engine: The Simplest Guide To Boost Your Business - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

This book shows your business as a system, where you are weak or strong and how to make simple but effective plans for the year ahead.

Many business owners and leaders are experts in their field but are not necessarily trained or expert in business. Bombarded with the hundreds of things they could do to improve their business, the temptation is to try and fix too many things at once or - paralysed by uncertainty - change nothing at all.

The Business Jet Engine^® is designed to show how business works as a system, applied to an easy-to-understand metaphor; an aircraft and its jet engine.

The book will:
Show you how The Business Jet Engine^® model works
Give you tools to evaluate your strengths and weaknesses - at increasing levels of detail
Show you how to create simple plans to improve your business

This book will help you see your business as a whole, to see the connection between all the major parts, and evaluate what action to take.
