Entrepreneurs, business leaders, new graduates, and everyone trying to make sense of this fast-changing, unpredictable, hard-to-chart world needs guidance, tools, and authentic, genuine advice they can employ to figure out what works for them. Pithy and engaging, "Rules of Thumb" addresses issues that readers of all ages can relate to: how to lead and inspire others; how to deal with failure; how to avert crises; how to create business strategy; how to hire, fire, and mentor; and, how to find a career that's right for you. With 52 practical lessons drawn from the author's experiences as an entrepreneur, journalist, and student of the world's best organizations and leaders, "Rules of Thumb" is wise, fun, and instructive. Webber's rules go against the grain of conventional wisdom but also build on the insights of business greats such as Jim Collins, Peter Drucker, and Tom Peters.
