Critics Review
Finish Big is for all those founder/leaders who want to do more than take…it is for the ones who want to leave something behind.
Finish Big is for all those founder/leaders who want to do more than take…it is for the ones who want to leave something behind. – Simon Sinek, author of Start with Why and Leaders Eat Last
I love Burlingham’s quest to understand why some entrepreneurs create a meaningful life after exiting their businesses, while others suffer and wander without purpose. Practical and profound, fast-moving and thought-provoking, masterful in its clear prose and compelling stories - Bo Burlingham has once again done a tremendous service in deploying his craft. – Jim Collins, author of Good to Great and co-author of Built to Last and Great by Choice
Given the plethora of management books, the idea of something truly new is nutty. But Finish Big sprouts from untilled soil, offering invaluable tales of business owners wrestling with life’s thorniest issues. Remarkable research, remarkable prose, remarkable book. – Tom Peters, coauthor of In Search of Excellence
This book is a gift, a must read for anyone who has even an inkling that it might be helpful. It will reward you with both peace of mind and a significant ROI. – Seth Godin, entrepreneur and author
