Inner Game of Business Growth

Bust your barriers to growth, profitability, and ease of operation

Michael Van Horn

#13 in the series.

Why do some businesses grow rapidly while others struggle for growth and profitability? The difference often lies within the noggin of the owner. You are the biggest asset of your business, and likely the biggest bottleneck as well.

All the clichés are true. The buck stops with you. You have to look in the mirror. To overcome your barriers to growth, ease, and profitability, you must work on yourself—that is, your own management practices, habits, attitudes, and beliefs.

This book describes a “mindset for growth” and gives you exercises and other aids to help you explore these for yourself.

This workbook focuses on your work habits, management style, and attitudes.
