Читать книгу The 10 Day Turnaround - Darren Stephens - Страница 6

While this book is written about creating a plan for transforming your business, we recognize that all businesses are started, owned and operated by people. There is more to a person than just the business side. There is more to you and more to us than just what we do.

Our approach to business is the same as in life, in that there are many facets to success and many factors to achievement.

We’d like to thank the many mentors, models, guides, colleagues and friends who have taught us, supported us and inspired us along the way. Most are giants in their fields, many are geniuses in their own way, and all are gifts in our lives.

In business, people like Richard Branson, Jay Abraham, Chet Holmes, Keith Cunningham, Stephen Covey, Brian Tracy, Matt and Amanda Clarkson, Daryl and Andrew Grant, Loral Langemeier, Marshall Thurber, Bret Thomson, Greg Cassar, Mike Rhodes, Dr. Ian Dover, Richard and Veronica Tan, Bernardo Moya, Koichiro Shimizu, Grant McDuling, Debbie Dragon, Jo Munro, Tony Giannopoulos, Pat Mesiti, Rich Schefren, Brian Johnson, Stephen Pierce and Dr. Tom Hill have been important sources for our success.

In personal growth, people such as Dr. Richard Bandler, John and Kathleen LaValle, Tony Robbins, Jim Rohn, John Overdurf, Julie Silverthorn and Anthony de Mello helped light our path along the way.

In philosophy and spirituality, Dr. Wayne Dwyer, Sri Sai Kaleshwara Swami, the Dalai Lama, Eckhart Tolle, Carlos Castaneda, Marianne Williamson, Ram Dass, Ken Wilber and Miguel Ruiz have served as guides along the path of living and growing.

In health, wellness and relationships, Jackie Tallentyre, Dr. John Gray, Andrew Weil, Dr. Daniel Amen, Dr. Mehmet C. Oz, Robert A. Johnson, Jon Kabat-Zinn and Leo Buscaglia have been important teachers, speakers and authors who have helped us grow.

Most significantly, we’d like to thank Fletcher and Carole Searle, John Gearon, Michael Dean, Luke Raisbeck, Narelle and Jason Urbanowicz, Darren Tagg, Lyndon David, Kevin Stephens, Jeni Stephens, Colin Frankel, Larry Lindt, Mel Kerr, Brian Gerhart, Fred Martin, Paul Dwyer, Manny Goldman, Brendon Bruchard, Debra Kezer, Maria Davis, Vanessa Pedzwater and “Big Bill” McKee for their support, contribution, advice and counsel throughout our lives and careers.

A huge “thank you” to our awesome publisher Global Publishing Group and to the amazing team at Dennis Jones & Associates; Dennis, Joel, Jeff and Janet—thanks for the dedication and commitment to the book’s success.

And finally, we thank our students and joint venture platinum partners for their ongoing support and trust in allowing us to guide them to future success.
