經營寶典：五本實用商業書籍

《打造企業為出售》

作者：約翰?瓦里洛

??? 別因為你沒有出售公司的計劃就放棄這本書。所有企業家都應該問問自己這個正中要害的核心問題：有沒有人會為收購我這家公司，而拿出一大筆錢？如果答案是否定的，那或許經營這家公司純屬浪費時間。瓦里洛提出了一個三步測試法，幫助讀者作出決定。例如：有沒有可能訓練一位新老板，像你一樣運營這家公司？如果不能，或許你的公司根本就沒有未來。

??? 本文作者凡爾納?哈尼什是經理人培訓公司Gazelles Inc.的首席執行官。

Built to sell

By John Warrillow

??? Don't avoid this book because you're not planning to sell your company. It's important for all entrepreneurs to ask themselves its central, kick-in-the-gut question: Would anyone pay you a lot of money for your company? If not, maybe you're wasting your own time running it. Warrilow gives you a three-point test that will help you decide. For example: Would it be possible to train a new owner to do exactly what you do? If not, maybe your business doesn't have a future.
