Synopsis

Roadblocks to corporate growth don’t just “happen.” They’re a natural part of the process. All the vision and determination in the world can’t prevent them. If you aren’t properly prepared, these barriers will slow corporate growth or bring it to a screeching halt altogether. They could even take your entire enterprise down the tubes.

Fortunately, these barriers are predictable and not at all insurmountable, when you know what to look for and how to focus on proper execution of the right plan.

In his new book, Great to Excellent; It's the Execution! – Overcoming the Natural Barriers to Profitable Company Growth, Jim Alampi, coach to CEOs, executive teams and Boards of Directors, spells out specifically how to spot each major hurdle long before it approaches and the steps you need to take now, to leap each natural barrier you reach.

WHAT OTHERS SAY ABOUT JIM ALAMPI:

“We are a 105 year old company and never have established core values, a mission statement or defined our purpose. Jim Alampi’s The Execution Roadmap© made it feasible and paved the way for our company to establish those key items for a company’s foundation. We have never felt more passionate about our core values, mission statement and purpose. Thank you, Jim, for making this feasible.” -- Jill Duemeland, President, Duemelands Commercial.

“Our firm has had a hockey stick growth curve for the past four years and as a result we outgrew a number of the processes and methods that had gotten us to where we are. Jim is helping us change that by introducing us to the strategies that he has spent years proving out as a CEO and advisor in businesses in many industries. Our team consists of some very talented individuals who have now committed to a handful of initiatives we all agree are our top priorities. Our organization has engaged Jim in an ongoing role to keep us on track and help us achieve our objectives.” -- Chris Simchick, Principal Partner, SDLC Partners L.P.

I wouldn't go back to running my company without the help of Jim Alampi.” -- Crystal Halley, Owner & CEO, RE/MAX 100.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

As founder and Managing Director of Alampi & Associates LLC, Jim Alampi has devoted more than thirteen years to coaching CEOs, executive teams and Boards of Directors in the areas of strategy, leadership, execution and business improvement. He’s provided advisory services to or spoken before almost 10,000 CEOs and senior executives regarding the lessons he learned as a senior executive at three publicly held companies and as the founder of three start-up companies.

His career has been varied, including work at every type of business – from fledgling privately-held startups to large publicly-held companies. Jim was the first outside CEO at e-Chemicals Inc., the industrial chemical industry's first B2B e-commerce distributor and supply chain execution provider; Chairman, CEO and President at Insurance Auto Auctions, Inc. (NASDAQ), a $325 million provider of total loss vehicle and claims processing services; President at Van Waters & Rogers Inc. ($1.5 billion), Senior Vice President at Univar Corporation and its subsidiaries (a $2.8 billion NYSE corporation) and Chief Operating Officer at VWR Corporation (NASDAQ $625 million)

As an entrepreneur who has led three professional services start-up companies, Jim is also keenly aware of the specific needs and hurdles faced by startup companies.

Throughout his career, Jim has gained tremendous insight into the efficient operation of businesses and the predictable patterns that emerge in companies that properly execute their business strategy. His advice, derived directly from these insights, always includes requiring CEOs to ask more questions and give fewer answers, and to create “stop-doing lists” that further focus the executive team’s time and energy on the most important and critical aspects of the business.

Using the tools and concepts you’ll be reading here, Jim has helped numerous CEOs and executives in companies ranging from $25 million to $1+ billion in revenue, all privately-, closely- or family-owned.

A long-term member of the National Association of Corporate Directors and a director and/or chairman of more than 20 for-profit public and private company boards, chairing four of them, the demands on Jim’s time exceeds his ability to work with every CEO who asks. It is his sincere hope, through this book, to reach even more CEOs, executives and teams in need of what he can show them – people like you.
