BRANCHBURG, N.J., July 21, 2016 /PRNewswire-iReach/ You're living the dream as a business owner, so why does it so often feel like a nightmare? Whether you are a second-generation family business owner who has risen through the ranks to lead the company or a new owner who has purchased a business from its founder to move it to the next level, it's likely that you're working too hard and accomplishing too little. Entrepreneur, visionary, and thought leader George Contos understands this struggle and shares his advice on operating a business in his newly published book Growing Up Metric: Real-life Business Insights for Realizing Your Potential.

In Growing Up Metric, you will learn from the tried-and-true example of Contos, CEO of World Wide Metric, and hone in on four impact areas to not only launch organization-wide growth but also limitless personal growth:

  • Define your values and goals
  • Get a handle on cash flows
  • Hire well, train well, and delegate
  • Nurture positivity and show respect

They say that if you love what you do, you never work a day in your life. There is some truth to that statement, and there is also the reality that running a company is hard work. George Contos states "In this book, I'll dive into the challenges common to leaders of small businesses who want to make that next big step up in profitability but are hampered by following too closely in the former owner's footsteps, not stepping back to reassess how they're running things or getting stuck in a start-up, austerity mind-set."

With over 30 years experience as a business leader and as a sought-after authority in his field, Contos uses a system of self-examination, documentation, and goal-setting that can help keep you and your company reach the next level of growth.Verne Harnish, author of"Scaling Up" notes,"It's rare when a business finds and stays focused on a niche that 10x's the company. World Wide Metric has done it and shares their practical secrets any firm can follow."

Growing Up Metric: Real-Life Business Insights for Realizing Your Potential is available now at Amazon.com and other online retailers. For more information visit www.georgecontos.net
