While I’m not an entrepreneur myself, I found When Grit Is Not Enough to be an incredibly useful and insightful guide. It’s packed with practical strategies that go far beyond the usual business advice. Dean Guida breaks down complex ideas in a clear and structured way, making them easy to understand—even for readers without a business background.
What stood out to me most was the focus on leadership, communication, and team alignment. These lessons aren’t just for founders—they’re valuable for anyone working in a fast-paced, constantly evolving environment. The book covers everything from setting meaningful goals to building a strong culture and running effective meetings.
I especially appreciated how relevant the content felt to today’s world, where adaptability and learning are essential no matter what role you’re in. This book helped me understand the mindset and practices that contribute to successful growth, both personally and professionally.
Highly recommended for anyone interested in leadership, team dynamics, or simply improving the way they work.

I'd seen this book on NetGalley then noticed it either as an ad or a feature in a business magazine (can't remember, just remember thinking Hey I just saw that on NetGalley)... so decided to check it out. This book promises a tactical roadmap for scaling your business beyond mere hard work. Packed with insights from the author's own entrepreneurial journey, it delves into building a culture of agility, high-performing teams, and data-driven decision-making. While specifically aimed at established businesses seeking growth, its guidance on leadership, communication, and strategy could benefit any entrepreneur or manager navigating dynamic environments.
