“Confessions of an Entrepreneur: Simple Wisdom for Starting, Building, and Running a Business,” written by entrepreneur extraordinaire Mark Zweig, was recently named the 2022 Entrepreneur-General book award winner, as well as a finalist for the Start Up category from Goody Business Book Awards, which focuses on books that have a positive social impact and helps others.
Mark Zweig is the entrepreneur-in-residence at the University of Arkansas’s Sam M. Walton College of Business and serves as the chairman of Vistage Northwest Arkansas. He has taught entrepreneurship at the U of A for 15 years and is the founder of two Inc. 500/5000 companies, the Zweig Group and Mark Zweig Inc.
“I wrote this book for anyone who either owns their own business or is thinking about starting or buying one,” Zweig said. “It is not filled with cliches, buzzwords and jargon like most other business books, and is written from the perspective of someone who has started, bought and sold multiple businesses, including two Inc 500/5000 companies — as well as worked with thousands of entrepreneurs and business owners over his lengthy career.”
The book condenses 50 years of experience and lessons learned and expresses his knowledge in what the book itself claims to be “practical, easy-to-understand guidance for bringing a business to life and cultivating success at every stage of its development. The candid stories he shares from his career provide insight into the realities of business ownership and illustrate proven principles for both personal and professional success.”
“[This book] will help the passionate entrepreneur seize the right opportunities and avoid fatal mistakes,” said Bob Lutz, former vice chairman at General Motors.
