The E-Myth Revisited: Why Most Small Businesses Dont Work and What to Do About It

In “The E-Myth Revisited,” author Michael E. Gerber explores the fundamental reasons behind the struggles of most small businesses and offers a compelling guide on how to overcome these challenges. Gerber contends that the key lies in understanding the entrepreneurial myth – the misguided belief that most businesses are started by entrepreneurs seeking the freedom of self-employment. Contrary to this assumption, Gerber argues that successful businesses require the convergence of three distinct roles: the Entrepreneur, the Manager, and the Technician. By dissecting these roles and illustrating how they interconnect, the book provides a blueprint for transforming a small business into a thriving, systematic enterprise. Through insightful anecdotes and practical advice, Gerber addresses the common pitfalls that entrepreneurs encounter and proposes actionable strategies to shift from working in the business to working on the business. --- Product Features --- Weight: 0.233, kg Written_By: Michael, E., Gerber Publisher: Harper, Business Book Type: Undergrad-Grad Best For: Small, business, success, strategies.
