What an inspiring read! Heart to Start is a superbly written autobiography by Kiwi Derek Handley that describes how he became an entrepreneur at a very young age, as well as the ventures, risks, challenges, wins and losses he’s been through over the years. It’s an amusing and endearing look into the mind of someone who began trading as a teenager and who’s lost hundreds of thousands of dollars by the time he was 22.
The book also outlines Derek’s recent involvement in The B Team – a global leadership group led by Sir Richard Branson that is focused on new business models for a sustainable and prosperous 21st century.
If you’re looking to gain traction in your own venture, this book includes an action-oriented field guide to the practical process of turning ideas and dreams into reality. There are lots of tips and insights on how to deal with repeated failure and ultimately succeed.
ISBN: 978-17755-32705
