Overview

The Game Changer is a business parable about innovation and business transformation, wrapping time honored principles in an engaging, fictional tale. It reveals the narrative behind a technology company founded by a game changing CEO/inventor that has reluctantly taken in funding, and nearly misses the gift of being able to grow at a much faster pace.

He and his team initially feel the pressure of investor’s quarter-to- quarter profit metrics, but through a series of unusual and intertwined events, they find their entrepreneurial spirit and energy ignited again. They are empowered to change every area of the company, providing value back to their investors, and eventually to the public after their IPO.Written for anyone interested in entrepreneurship, innovation, leadership and personal growth.

Interviews

  • provides inspiration to entrepreneurs, founders, investors and employees of the companies that they lead and fund through a fictional story of a small technology company.
  • A delightful change from the traditional business book that factually dispenses facts, methodologies and recommendations about business growth and innovation, weaving instead a compelling story from these same venerable truths.
  • has added dimension of having a “Forest Gump-like” quality, in that various of the characters are tied to real-life celebrities, such as Bibi Netanyahu (Prime Minister of Israel) and Colin Kaepernick (San Francisco 49ers Quarterback) and Princess Diana. The story details of their involvement are based on true life details about their lives, but the characters in the story that know them are fictional.
  • The ingenious, cleverly devised approach weaves in fiction with real-life authors and their books that collectively have impacted hundreds of thousands of companies and executives around the globe.
  • The authors featured in this novel have a collective social media following of nearly 1 million people.
  • Every community has entrepreneurs that need the perspectives offered by each character in this unique novel. The 28 million small businesses in the US are major players in our economy. Over 50% of the current working population in the United States works in a small business setting.
  • Encourages founders and investors alike to understand that ideas and funding are two sides of the same coin, both necessary to build a successful company.
  • Inspires founders to stay the course and helps them understand that having to raise outside funding is not tantamount to failure.
