Anyone with a dream to own their own business or become their boss can reach out to this book for some practical, doable, realistic advice on launching a start-up.

With over three decades in the industry, the first eighteen as a corporate professional and the last twelve as an entrepreneur, Neeraj Kapoor puts together a definitive book for students at business schools, and every professional with aspirations to launch a start-up. Bringing flavours from his own life experiences, this book is relatable, connects with readers, and answers the ‘how to’ questions that most people have but don’t know whom to ask.

Speaking about the book, author, Neeraj Kapoor, said, ‘This book provides a step-by-step guide to launching your start-up, unlocking the exponential potential of your talent, transcending new paradigms, exploring new opportunities, and re-writing your own destiny. The reality is that each one of us has amazing potential to build their own Startup business and create exponential value for society but somehow our education has been designed to produce only a workforce and work as an employee. This book breaks many myths that surround people’s belief systems holding them back in life.’

Let this book be the harbinger of change that brings in waves of transformation in every aspiring entrepreneur who is waiting for starting out, someday. This book shall enable him to clear the clouds and put a specific action plan with specific date and timelines.’
