Management & management techniques

This book is for all people in business, although it is particularly targeted at those businesses starting out and/or businesses that are floundering. The book does not assume that you have a business education, rather it draws on the one percenters from the world’s best business courses, authors and authorities and presents them in a straightforward, easy-to-understand way.

Most of these business owners fall into one of two camps: they are either super enthusiastic but lack structure and certain skills; or have lost their way and are feeling completely over whelmed.

Throughout these pages, I will take you on a journey, through planning, finance, marketing and managing your risk with the aim of teaching you how to run your business better. Some of the things you read, you may know already – so treat them as a refresher. Others you will wish you had learned earlier.

Reviews for Run Your Business Better: Essential Information Every Business Owner Should Know and Use

An easy-to-follow, comprehensive refresher on business ownership. Stephen takes you on a journey through planning, finance, marketing and managing risk in business. - Nadia Kentera, Director, Kentera Event ... a pragmatic and practical guide which we can all learn from... a great combination of what I knew but needed to do, which provided help in achieving those tasks. - Paul Travers, Director, KPMG and Director, FTA Secretariat I like this book. It's a simple, direct, easy read that challenges basic assumptions and reminds us why we all go into business. We can easily get lost or distracted along the way. This book is a great tool to bring us back on task. - Richard Benton, Business owner, Director, Board Chairman and conservationist
