What People are Saying:
“The best advice always comes in simple format, makes you think and sometimes, even laugh. This book will be a terrific resource for entrepreneurs out there who are about to embark on this path, and for those of us who need to be reminded of the fundamental principles.” ~ Rebeca E. Hwang, Judging Chair and member of the Board of Directors for the California Clean Tech Open Competition.
“I love your book and I think you have captured some of the key ideas of many of the entrepreneurial people in the valley. Simple. Clear. Elegant. Truth. What more do you need? You have captured the complexity in a ‘less is more’ kind of way, and I think the messages will resonate with anyone who is trying to start a company, cause or revolutionary idea.Many people have written volumes of analysis about what makes a good entrepreneur. Analysis is simple, like arithmetic, but it never really evokes emotional energy. Synthesis is much harder and is more like calculus, and when done right unleashes energy that is hidden deep inside us. The answers are obvious and you know it when you see it. This book distills the mystique of entrepreneurship into a series of emotive drawings that will serve as a great reflection on the topic, for any entrepreneur.” ~ Kevin Walsh, Senior Vice President, Oracle
