Enforcer to Entrepreneur: Achieving Hockey Stick Growth in Life, Business, and Sports

by Jerry Rollins

Overview

NOTHING IN BUSINESS IS A MYSTERY.

SUCCESS COMES THROUGH CAREFUL STUDY AND DEDICATION TO THE PROCESS.

I was a professional hockey player who grew up in a hockey family. My dad is Al Rollins, NHL player and professional coach. In my childhood and as a young man, I was surrounded by the greats: Gordie Howe, Bobby Hull and Wayne Gretzky. I was lucky enough to learn a lot from them about life, sportsmanship and excellence. But this is not a hockey book.

I am also a high school dropout. I took everything I learned on and off the ice and became a successful CEO, running five companies and now mentoring hundreds of executives. I clawed my way to the top, not by being the best, but by observing and mimicking those who did possess extraordinary talent.

Business is a process and once you understand it, success is almost inevitable. This book will share decades of experience gathered by some of the most successful executives I know-lessons which were previously only available to the top leaders in industry.

WHY RE-INVENT THE WHEEL WHEN SO MANY BEFORE YOU HAVE FOUND THE FORMULA FOR SUCCESS?

Editorial Reviews

Jerry Rollins has written the ultimate companion for the aspiring entrepreneur. His insights are honed from actual experiences, not business school theory. his story is inspiring and his lessons are practical and pragmatic.

Jerry hits the nail on the head as he takes the lessons {school of hard knocks} he's learned and experienced through sports/life and has applied/implemented these ideals and principles to Business and Managing People.

Phrases like, "I got your back", "fear of failure", "never give up", lead, follow or get out of the way" resonate and echo in my head!

A very interesting, helpful and straightforward read. Enjoy!

Enforcer to Entrepreneur reminds us that hockey is just a warmup for what we accomplish on Earth. The book reveals a treasure-trove of precious pearls for the rookie and veteran entrepreneur alike, interweaved with some fun hockey stories. Jerry Rollins, like Mr. Hockey, teaches that living intentionally, to have a plan and execute it, propels us to be our best in life, in our families and communities, spiritually, and vocationally. Enforcer to Entrepreneur will inspire you to be more.
