Building Beyond You Book
How to Build a structured, profitable and sustainable business that outlives you
Too Many Brilliant Businesses Die with Their Founders
The reality is most entrepreneurs pour everything into their work, but few create a company that thrives beyond them.
This is what I considered in the early days of starting House of Tara, which is why even though the business faced multiple recessions, currency devaluations, and piracy (Our products were pirated) we continued to build and more recently we successfully transitioned leadership over to a successor as Managing Director.
Building Beyond You tells the story of how we did it.
What the book covers
- Structuring Your Business
- The Role of Vision
- Creating a Systems Mindset
- The People Element of Structure
- Managing Finances
- The Growth Process
- Business Succession Planning
- Passing The Baton
This is a woman who did not wait for legacy to find her. She curated it. Choose it. Even in letting go. Perhaps the hardest test of vision is the willingness to walk away when the structure stands – not crumbling, but whole. Tara made that choice to bow out before time nudged her, to entrust what she had built into the hands of others, and in doing so, teaches us the final, most graceful part of leadership – transition
