“As a leader, a manager, or an entrepreneur, SIMPLE Scaling is THE book to start your scaleup journey with. Brendan and Claire have compiled a book that pragmatically covers the key principles from business leaders who have been there and done it. It's in my 'best of' library.”
— Sebastien Tondeur, Chief Executive Officer at MCI Group
“It's one thing to cook a nice meal for a few friends, and another to prepare a feast for twelve at the holidays, but then it's altogether different to try it for twenty-four or more. As you scale up, the challenge of preparing the meal becomes exponentially more difficult. The same is true in business. If you want to successfully cater large gatherings, then you need guidance from a top professional caterer. And if you want to take your enterprise to higher levels of success and prosperity, then SIMPLE Scaling: 10 Proven Principles to 10x Your Business is the manual for you! In this engaging, energizing, and practical book, Brendan McGurgan and Claire Colvin provide the recipes and techniques you need to grow and succeed.”
— Michael J. Gelb, author of How to Think Like Leonardo da Vinci: 7 Steps to Genius Every Day
“Scaling a business looks great from the outside: shiny success; lots of growth, excitement, and change. The reality inside is different; scaling is hard. It needs high-quality work with every customer, product, team member, and partner. Success is about learning from others, particularly the 'spilt blood' of what went wrong, so you don't suffer the same way. It's also about sharing stories of how to inspire a team to change the world. This book has both, with a consistent focus on purpose and people, which I love. Every business is different, but this book has some common themes and real stories that will help you. Oh yes, and it made me laugh too, always a good thing.”
