__________________*From the author of the multi-million-copy bestseller Good to Great*'No matter what your walk of life, no matter how big or small your enterprise, no matter whether it's for-profit or nonprofit, no matter whether you're CEO or a unit leader, the question stands, How does your flywheel turn?' - JIM COLLINS__________________The key to business success is not a single innovation or one plan. It is the act of turning the flywheel, slowly gaining momentum and eventually reaching a breakthrough.
