Quietly, under the radar, a growing number of undeniably great companies have rejected the pressure of endless growth to focus on more satisfying business goals.
Veteran journalist Bo Burlingham takes us deep inside fourteen of these remarkable companies that have chosen to march to their own drummer. He shows the leaders of these small giants recognized the full range of choices they had about the type of company they could create and made the choice to pursue greatness by placing other goals ahead of getting as big as possible as fast as possible. And he shows how we can all benefit by questioning the conventional definitions of business success.
Passionate, purposeful, and values-driven—The Small Giants community brings together like-minded individuals, from aspiring new business leaders to seasoned veterans, looking to harness the connection between culture and business success. Members of Small Giants don’t want to grow just for the sake of growing—they want to grow with purpose, inwardly focusing resources to enhance the lives of all employees, customers, and the broader community in which we live.
