What separates the founders and leaders who build something that lasts from those who burn out, plateau, or lose themselves in the chase?
It is not just smarter technology.
It is not a bigger funding round.
It is not working harder than everyone else.
It is purpose — built into the way you lead, hire, measure, scale, and make decisions when the pressure is highest.
In Built to Matter, Dr. Srikanth Gaddam — founder and CEO of ERPA, a company he grew from two people in a small office into a hundred-million-dollar enterprise recognized on the Inc. 5000 for ten consecutive years — shares a practical leadership blueprint for building organizations that last.
This is not a book about technology. It is not a book about one company or one industry. It is a people-first leadership book for founders, CEOs, entrepreneurs, executives, managers, and professionals who want to build something meaningful in an age of AI, uncertainty, and constant disruption.
Through real-world stories, hard-earned lessons, research-backed frameworks, and honest reflections from more than twenty-five years of entrepreneurship, Built to Matter shows how lasting companies are built — not only through growth, but through trust, culture, discipline, adaptability, and human-centered leadership.
Inside, you will discover how to:
- Build mission as a true competitive advantage, not just a marketing statement
- Shift from chasing revenue to creating long-term enterprise value
- Use AI as leverage without losing the human judgment that makes organizations irreplaceable
- Move from hustle-driven leadership to mastery, learning, and sustainable growth
- Build trust through transparency, vulnerability, and authentic communication
- Create culture from day zero through hiring, recognition, and behavioral values
- Avoid the costly mistake of putting the wrong leader in the wrong role
- Turn employees into intrapreneurs who help drive innovation from within
- Measure what actually matters instead of chasing vanity metrics
- Survive the dangerous stage when growth outpaces infrastructure
- Understand what AI can change — and what it can never replace
- Build a legacy that outlasts any one leader, product, or market cycle
Every chapter includes Key Takeaways that distill the main leadership principles and Put It to Work actions that help readers apply the ideas immediately.
This book is for you if:
You are a founder wondering how to grow without losing your values.
You are an executive trying to lead through AI and uncertainty.
You are a manager who wants to build a stronger team culture.
You are an entrepreneur who wants to build more than revenue.
You are a leader who believes success should be measured not only by what you build, but by who becomes better because you built it.
The companies that win the next decade will not simply be the biggest. They will be the most trusted, the most adaptable, and the most human.
Built to Matter is a guide for building one of them.
Start building what matters — today.
Dr. Srikanth Gaddam is the Founder and CEO of ERPA, a Workday and AWS Cloud implementation partner serving more than 1,100 organizations across 36 states. A Harvard Business School OPM graduate, doctoral researcher, and author of five books, he is also the founder of the Sponsor Kids Foundation and creator of the first responder children's scholarship fund.

Store description
We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
