The Entrepreneur Ethos – Interview with Jarie Bolander and Mihir Shah – Small Business Show 149


Timing plays a critical role in the success of your business. When you launch your products, when you hire new employees, and in the case of Jarie Bolander , when you publish your book. Join us this week on the Small Business Show as we meet Jarie to discuss his new book, The Entrepreneur Ethos  along with his good friend,  Mihir Shah  CEO of Drobo.
Listen in and hear why Jarie felt compelled to create a roadmap for entrepreneurial success by building more ethical, inclusive and resilient companies.
We also have a bonus today with Mihir Shah adding his comments to the discussion about the “why” of being an entrepreneur and how stepping in to solve problems can be rewarding far beyond any financial gains.
Listen to the show, then join us on the Small Business Support Group to ask more questions and to add your voice to the discussion!
