What’s it about?
Down the long and treacherous road toward entrepreneurial success, gutters are littered with the too conservative, the overly cautious, and those that are simply allergic to risk-taking. If you’re a budding new business owner, you’re unlikely to want to join these forgotten companies—so how do you escape this fate?
Now, this isn’t a call to become reckless and overzealous; rather, it’s an opportunity to make smart and calculated risks. Without risks, your start-up may falter along the way. Then again, make a decision that’s based on profoundly flawed data, or on a gut feeling that turns out to be wrong, and you could end up in the same boat.

Shoe Dog explores the how-tos, giving a unique view of the inner workings of a start-up, both the exciting and the difficult. Along the way, you will see what it takes to build a stable and flourishing company, learning both from the mistakes made and successes
