What is it about?
Bo dives into businesses that decided to be great, instead of growing big. There’s a common misconception in the business world that in order to improve, you have to continuously grow. The companies Bo features in this book prove otherwise.
The book shows how these “small giants”, thanks to their decision to stay “small”, have the ability to be agile, maintain incredible company culture, and continue to deliver excellent products (among many other benefits).
My favourite parts
The book was fairly motivational, which can be nice to read. It’s encouraging to hear success stories and learn about how, as a business grows, you have the option to stay a certain size, grow at your own pace, or grow fast if you really want to.
I particularly liked the features on the Union Square Hospitality Group because I’ve admired them for a bit of time, since I am in the same industry as well.
