Scaling Up Excellence is Done! Thanks for Your Patience

 
Fancy scaling up excellence cover


Huggy Rao and I started working on this book seven years ago.  It has been our main focus for the last two years and, during the last year, when people asked me what I was doing, my answer was "I am trying to type my way out of solitary confinement in the garage." 


The publication date is February 4, 2014. But I will start blogging here and other places about the book now that I am not spending 60 or 70 hours week writing.  It is already available to pre-order on Amazon and we are doing lots of talks, webinars, and workshops on scaling in the coming months.  And we are building a website. Stay tuned! 


P.S. The cover was designed by the amazing Justin Gammon.  We went through many, many concepts and prototypes.  In a  month or two I will write a long post about the process, it was most instructive.  And although it is traditional for authors to complain about publishers, I have to give Crown a lot of credit as, so far, the focus during every decision has been on quality -- not ego and not office politics.  It is a rare and beautiful thing, and has enabled Huggy and I produce a book, and to have a cover, that we truly love.
