First and Fast: How to Outpace Your Competitors, Lead Your Markets, and Accelerate Growth - Softcover
Synopsis
First and Fast is the first book to provide leaders with a comprehensive set of practical tools to help them increase pace, build momentum and accelerate growth in a systematic way. At the heart of the book are three key lessons:
* The pace of a business is a leadership task, and is driven by your behaviors: you must understand, internalize and implement those behaviors on a daily basis
* A “high-paced” organization is not the same as a “busy” organization: it requires a different mindset, different behaviors and new management approaches and processes covering strategy, R&D, marketing and sales, decision-making, performance management and team-building.
* The Accelerated Growth Model—there are ten critical steps and approaches to increasing the pace of growth and performance in any organization.
First and Fast brings these lessons to life using a mix of provocative insights, international case studies, practical tools and templates, and stories and anecdotes from CEOs and business leaders that have been there, made the film and sold the t-shirt.
