    About

    Why is profitable growth so hard to achieve and sustain?  Most executives manage their companies as if the solution to that problem lies in the external environment--find an attractive market, formulate the right strategy, win new customers.  
    But when Bain & Company's Chris Zook and James Allen (authors of the bestselling Profit from the Core) researched this question, they found that when companies fail to achieve their growth targets, 90% of the time the root causes are internal, not external--increasing distance from the front lines, loss of accountability, proliferating processes and bureaucracy, to name only a few.  What's more, companies experience a set of predictable internal crises, at predictable stages, as they grow. Even for healthy companies, these crises, if not managed properly, stifle the ability to grow further--and can actively lead to decline.
    The key insight from Zook and Allen's research is that managing these choke points requires a "founder's mentality"-- behaviors typically embodied by a bold, ambitious founder--to restore the speed, focus, and connection to customers, all of which are lost as companies grow:  
    • An insurgent's clear mission and purpose
    • An unambiguous owner mindset
    • A relentless obsession with the front line
    Based on the authors' decade-long study of companies in more than 40 countries, The Founder's Mentality demonstrates the strong relationship between these three traits in companies of all kinds--not just start-ups--and their ability to sustain performance. Through rich analysis and inspiring examples, this book shows how any leader--not only a founder--can instill and leverage a founder's mentality throughout their organization, and find lasting, profitable growth.
