A growth-focused approach: The book is divided into three sections, which cover planning for fast growth, building a company for fast growth, and leading for fast growth.

A down-to-earth action plan: Herold’s experienced-based advice never gets bogged down in generalities or theory. Instead, he offers a wealth of practical tips, including
- How to design meetings for maximum efficiency
- How to hire top-quality talent
- How to grow in particularly tough markets
- How to put together a board of advisors—even for a smaller company
- How even the busy entrepreneur can achieve a work/life balance
