I enjoyed the informative review, thanks. This book guides the reader into a better state of mind, organisation, priority-management and spiritual health to help with the pressures of business management. There is a tried and tested formula and guidelines which are all well worth reading.

Scale at Speed by Felix Velarde is a guide to growing a successful business by setting practical, achievable small goals, which will, in turn, help achieve the bigger goals. I loved the author's introductory story about his trip to the Himalayas. The way the guide helped him reach the top by breaking it down into smaller goals was brilliant, and that concept applied to business goals makes perfect sense. I have added it to my reading list. Congratulations on the BOTD!

I'm sure this goal-setting and goal-achieving process is helpful for business leaders and entrepreneurs. Our brains like structure, and having a proven plan and tools is useful. I'm not the target audience, though. Thank you for your review.

This seems to be a complex book that entrepreneurs and business leaders would find to be insightful. I'm not sure I will read the book due to it's complexities when it comes to "business management and" getting "sustainable success." I would go for an easy read that features a good story. I'll pass this book. Sorry.

This review makes "Scale at Speed" by Felix Velarde sound like an incredibly valuable resource for anyone in the business world. The 2Y3X® program and its practical approach to goal-setting and implementation seem particularly compelling. The emphasis on the flexibility of the framework and the inclusion of both senior and junior members in the Growth Lab Team is intriguing. The review highlights the book's clear communication, practical tools like the QuickMap, and effective meeting rhythms, all of which seem essential for achieving sustainable growth. Overall, this book appears to be a must-read for entrepreneurs and business leaders aiming for strategic growth and success.

Thanks for your insightful thought on the book. It's great to hear that the 2Y3X® program and its pragmatic applications were so all around made sense of and important. Your features of the book's emphasis on separating long haul objectives, vital recruiting, and the adaptability of the 2Y3X system truly impact me. Your confirmation of amazing editing and the book's unmistakable correspondence of intricate ideas further hardens my advantage. I value your suggestion and will think about perusing this thorough manual for key development. Much obliged again for sharing your considerations!
