It shows entrepreneurs how to recognize a lucky break and have the foresight to take advantage of it.

Based on experiences with hundreds of successful and failed companies in the software market over three decades. Author's method has resulted in expanded revenue and increased market success for both large and small companies. Informative and highly detailed, this is a must-read for all business leaders and emerging entrepreneurs who want to understand how to stay nimble and succeed in complicated, competitive markets."-- Provided by publisher.
