Publisher's Note
This is the story of Walpold Enterprises, a three-year-old Florida-based company with annual revenues of slightly over $3 million that manufactures a special-purpose computer-graphics board. The company was founded by the engineers who invented the product, John Walpold and Dan Killian, with financing from Herb Chandler, a local independent venture capitalist. The story opens with CEO John Walpold realizing that his business is unraveling before his eyes. And for good reason: His customers are leaving him for the competition, he has an absentee partner, the company's cash flow is nil, his banker won't give him a float, systems that once worked when the company was small don't, and his employees are fed up. Walpold Enterprises is in the midst of growth-induced chaos - something few small-business owners escape. It's a race against time. John has one week to start addressing the problem areas or Herb Chandler - his financier - is going to replace John as CEO with his hatchetman, Leonard. What does John do to get a company that has runamok back on track? A number of crucial business issues are addressed in this highly entertaining and informative business novel: managing without micromanaging, the "business thermometer" buried within a company's financial statements, owners' fiduciary responsibilities, using a team approach to develop effective procedures, running effective meetings, and quality assurance. Small-business owners will glean fresh insights into their own predicaments - and learn how to apply the principles of professional management to every phase of their growing companies. Like John Walpold, they will learn how to gain control of their own destinies.
