This book has all everything, and I mean everything you need to start a successful growth venture, from concept to product, product to market – and beyond. Bill Aulet has distilled the cumulative experience of the best techniques and best thought processes from entrepreneurship.<\/em><\/p>\n Most readers are looking for quick tricks and the fast path to success. Let the other books encourage you to throw darts at a dartboard, Disciplined Entrepreneurship is the opposite – a specific method (not a formula) on developing a concept, and a new venture.<\/em><\/p>\n The book is both entertaining, very well written and packed with techniques, examples, insights and wisdom. Don’t let the fact that it’s a textbook fool you – it’s easy to read and also packed with clever and useful illustrations.<\/em><\/p>\n Highly recommended for every serious entrepreneur, seasoned entrepreneur, and for those who may one day become entrepreneurs.”<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Buy the hardcover from Amazon for AED 88.90<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Promising review:<\/p>\n “I still can\u2019t believe I got to read this book! I wish it existed sooner and that I landed on it sooner! I promise if you really want to advance in your business, or date I say, even just life in general. READ THIS BOOK!!! Everyone NEEDS to read this!! As an entrepreneur & small business and owner, I feel reborn after reading this book! I am shaking with disbelief at all the insight, wisdom & practical tips I\u2019ve got from it. My copy has almost every line underlined because everything just feels soooo important! <\/em><\/p>\n I will be revisiting this book for a long time!! I wish that everyone would get to read it. Please purchase it! I loved the book so much, I followed the authors on social media and was pleasantly surprised to find them responsive & kind. I feel that that makes all the difference! They obviously genuinely care about this book & the message in it. And what\u2019s best, is that the book itself is certainly worth every penny & second! I would even happily pay more for it as I\u2019ve found it sooo beneficial!! What a gift!!”<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Buy the hardcover from Amazon for AED 64.00<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Promising review:<\/p>\n \u201cDidn\u2019t know what to expect so was pleasantly surprised (probably because the title evoked \u201cget rich fast\u201d). Things I liked: 1) thorough coverage of all things related to conceiving, test driving, launching and growing a micro business. 2) case studies and realistic financials: perfectly highlighted the diverse range of product and services that can be offered through such a model of micro business. The financials are realistic numbers, therefore setting reasonable expectations (hopefully) for people who might consider trying or benchmarking. 3) The discussion about scaling vs. keeping it small is a very interesting one: I liked that the author presented real-life cases for either scenario for food for thought instead of advocating one or the other (e.g. presenting a single \u201cformula\u201d as the golden rule that all shall follow)\u2013I can see how this particular decision can be case sensitive and there really is no \u201cright\u201d answer as long as it works for the entrepreneur! 4) Keep hearing the term \u201cthe gig economy\u201d these days and this book now gives me a window into a world of side-hustle and micro businesses that I was not previously aware of or super interested in. Enjoyed the book a lot, and might be considering trying my hand at some side-gigs. I mean, why not?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Buy the paperback version from Amazon for\u00a0AED 55<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\nTo celebrate the launch, the Founder Institute will host several free virtual startup events in Dubai, where you can learn from top entrepreneurs and hear more about the program from the comfort of your home:<\/h2>\n
