Writing this book was more challenging than I thought but also rewarding as I learned so much about the success of women, black and brown entrepreneurs, business owners, and CEOs. None of this would have been possible without conversations with successful business owners that you may never see in a headline and reading countless stories about women, black and brown businesses who know the formula. The stories and strategies in this book share how small businesses are growing and scaling their companies, and also insights about growth strategies in the global economy.
