9781637744086: The Growth Paradox: Rethinking Control, Accountability, and Change to Move Your Business to the Next Level

Synopsis

Award-winning CEO Jacky Fischer presents her signature management method to help small businesses scale up by avoiding the most common and destructive pitfalls.

If you hold on too tightly as a leader—to your people, to everyday decision-making, to the past—you will cut off vital oxygen necessary for growth. The solution: Stop being a control freak and instead empower your employees, get out of your own way, and establish a clear vision for the future. In other words: Let go to help your business grow.

Embrace the growth paradox to get unstuck and grow your company to the next level. By leaning into some key, counterintuitive business ideas, you’ll make space for changes that will lead to nonlinear growth.

In this uniquely insightful guide, you’ll learn why:

  • Holding people accountable doesn’t work

  • Helping employees often hurts performance

  • Giving up power and control can increase growth

  • Focusing on money can reduce profits

  • Introducing big ideas can derail your progress

    What’s more, Fisher shares lessons she learned from growing a small family business into an organization with annual revenue topping $40 million—as well as practical tools for taking stock of where you are and charting an actionable plan so that you can create hypergrowth in your business.
