Fireside Chat with John Herman

Firesidechatsmall

Failure isn't fatal! Chat with John Herman

In this 20 minute podcast, I chat with author, entrepreneur, and self proclaimed failure guru, John Herman. Sixty percent of businesses fail. Learn the three common characteristics of most failures. Herman shares the critical piece of information most business leaders don't know. Herman shares his tips, wisdom, and lessons learned in his new book called, Hermanisms: Axioms for Business and Life. Herman also wrote The Innkeeper Tales: Modern-day Canterbury Tales to Entertain, Elighten and Empower. Thank goodness for failure or we might not have the Hershey bar (I lived on Hershey bars as a child, swiping them from my parents' store in Canada). 

Don't be a "sceptator." Listen to this podcast!

Here are a couple Hermanisms:

#3 Business is a continuum. Success is the cumulative good result of riding out the waves crashing against you.

#38 Facing reality is sobering. Ignoring reality is like being drunk.

#50. Th most bitter part of failure is questioning your own effort.
