Description
Michael E. Gerber’s The E-Myth Revisited challenges familiar assumptions about what it takes to start and run a company. It follows a business from its entrepreneurial beginnings through growing pains and toward mature management, using that progression to examine how an owner’s role changes. Gerber adapts lessons associated with franchising for businesses of many kinds and emphasizes a central distinction: working on the systems of a business versus working inside its daily operations. The book’s practical aim is to help owners approach growth more predictably and productively by giving sustained attention to how the enterprise is organized and managed.
