Changing the Odds is a practical guide to building a successful business from an initial idea, through the start-up phase and into a sustainable business. It is based on the author's many years of helping start-ups and is full of examples, case studies and a lot of ideas that will make you think, reflect and build a better business.
The interest in starting a business has never been greater driven by many factors which have been building over recent years. The financial crisis that started in 2007 created instability in many industries, political instability in many parts of the world adds to uncertainty and the Covid pandemic has changed everyone's view of the future. One option is to take control of your own destiny and start a business or a social enterprise.
This book is for anyone who is seriously thinking about this option as well as those who might be curious about what's involved. The book will also help those who have started a business and are seeking growth or just survival. There is also a section for intrapreneurs - those with entrepreneurial ideas who are working within an existing organisation.
The book aims to give them confidence in what they're doing - by showing them what works and what doesn't in business. It helps them evaluate that the path they're currently on is right, or they need to change something. Included are ideas, knowledge, techniques and ways of looking at problems in an objective and critical way providing a whole toolkit for the entrepreneur.
Richard Bostock has over 35 years' experience working with and helping entrepreneurs in their efforts to create successful and sustainable startups. He is well qualified given a wide range of experience as both a senior manager and consultant in organisations as diverse as multi-nationals, small medium enterprises (SMEs), public sector organisations, NGOs and social enterprises.
He has helped restructure a range of organisations which has included both the management and corporate finance implications.
Add to this extensive work on strategy development in organisations including training MBA students and senior executives in building effective strategies. All of this adds up to someone with an intense knowledge of how organisations develop, grow and prosper and the ability to explain complex issues in a sensible, practical and understandable way. Add in a high level of curiosity about everything and the impact is dynamic.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
