IN A MODERN MARKETPLACE THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF BUSINESSES
Let’s face it, growing competition and a maelstrom of poorly executed strategy has combined to create disenfranchised consumer and employee populations who are demanding more value from their potential suitors. This sea of change is forcing American businesses and their leaders to consider the fact that doing what they have always done, will not deliver the same results as in the past. In Sink or Shine, we make the case that a thoughtful and intentional plan predicated on an authentic mission with a keen focus on value is central to future success. Companies who combine these attributes with a commitment to pay special attention to talent, leadership, and messaging will stand tall upon the shoreline as a beacons in the marketplace. They will Shine bright attracting clients and talent while all the others will sink into the abyss.
WHO SHOULD READ SINK OR SHINE
Whether you’re a business leader, an entrepreneur, or anyone in between, Sink or Shine is an unapologetic, candid conversation about what it takes to thrive in today’s business climate. Within its pages are stories about companies and individuals that are doing it right and a warning to those that refuse to change course of their imminent demise. It serves as a conduit to reimagine the potential of your company and provides a blueprint to follow so that you are able to effortlessly attract clients and talent by the brightness of your mission.
