Never Mind the Bollocks Just Start a Business:
Business isn’t polite. It’s punk: Forget the boardroom gloss and motivational clichés, this is entrepreneurship turned up to eleven. Never Mind the Bollocks Just Start A Business is my raw, rebellious take on what it really takes to survive, adapt and succeed in the chaos of business.
Drawing inspiration from 25 iconic punk songs, I’ve transformed the defiance, disruption and attitude of punk into 25 lessons in entrepreneurship. From the Sex Pistols and The Clash to Buzzcocks, The Jam, Ramones, Sham 69 and Dead Kennedys, each track becomes a lesson in leadership, innovation, resilience, risk and challenging the status quo.
“Innovation starts where conformity dies.”
“Respect the legacy but never worship it.”
“If you’re not offending the status quo, you’re not leading.”
This isn’t a business book for the comfortable. It’s a manifesto for the misfits, founders and visionaries who build from scratch, fall hard and rise again.
I draw on more than four decades of business and energy experience, from street markets to international boardrooms, from building companies to losing almost everything and starting again.
If traditional business books sound like muzak, this is the loud, unapologetic alternative. 25 songs. 25 business lessons. One rebellious philosophy.
So, crank it up.
Tear up the rulebook.
And learn to build your business the punk way, with attitude, authenticity and unbreakable belief.
Because fitting in, never changed anything.
