    About this ebook

    The must-read summary of Gino Wickman and Mark Winter's book: "Rocket Fuel: The One Essential Combination That Will Get You More of What You Want from Your Business".

    This complete summary of the ideas from Gino Wickman and Mark Winter's book "Rocket Fuel" shows that the best way to grow a business is by linking a "Visionary" up with an "Integrator". While visionaries can see the future they are aiming for, integrators know how to get there. Companies can reach their goals faster and more efficiently by following in the footsteps of partnerships such as Walt and Roy Disney, who combined a visionary with an integrator to produce stellar results. The authors explain how you can tell if you are a visionary or an integrator and then how to use this knowledge to excel in your role.

    Added-value of this summary:
    • Save time
    • Understand the key concepts
    • Increase your business knowledge

    To learn more, read "Rocket Fuel" and discover how you and your company can excel!

      Book Presentation: Rocket Fuel by Gino Wickman and Mark Winters

      Summary of Rocket Fuel (Gino Wickman and Mark Winters)

      Book Abstract

      MAIN IDEA

      The best way to grow a business – particularly one in the $2 - $50 million annual revenue range – is to have a Visionary link up with an Integrator. When you have these two types of leaders working together in unison, magic happens.

      Visionaries see the future whereas integrators make it happen. The world of business is full of stellar visionary/integrator combinations including:

      Walt and Roy Disney at Disney

      Henry Ford and James Couzens at Ford

      Ray Kroc and Fred Turner at McDonalds

      Joel Pearlman and Rob Dube at imageOne

      Randy Pruitt and David Bitel at Detroit Radiator

      The simple fact is growing companies need the skills of both visionaries and integrators but it is extremely rare for an entrepreneur to be strong in both areas. More than likely, your company will excel only if you can combine the efforts of a visionary with the discipline of an integrator.

      If you can figure out whether you are an integrator or a visionary, then you will know which role you need to assume to excel and what type of person you need to work with to soar.

      "An entrepreneur's lust needs to be counterbalanced with a manager's prudence and discipline. When it's structured correctly, the dynamic that exists between these two distinct leadership gifts can be magical. We have the privilege of spending every day teaching business leaders. We witness the beneficial results achieved by defining and clarifying these two vital roles. With them, companies gain faster growth, more peace of mind, more
