Razorsight CEO Releases Book
Charlie Thomas' book "Entrepreneur" hits bookstores nationwide
FAIRFAX, VA - August 22, 2005 - Razorsight, a market leader and innovator of enterprise financial management and compliance software, today announced that its CEO, Charlie Thomas, has released a book, "Entrepreneur: A CEO's Lessons in American Capitalism."
"Entrepreneurs are the backbone of American businesses and our great free enterprise system. Charlie Thomas is a prime example of an entrepreneur. He lived the American dream and clearly experienced the full business life cycle. Charlie has many invaluable lessons to share, resultant from his tenure as CEO of a classic start-up during the most exciting business decade in the 20th century," said former Dallas Cowboys Hall of Fame QB Roger Staubach, now Chairman and CEO of The Staubach Company.
Entrepreneur: A CEO's Lessons in American Capitalism (SelectBooks, $23.95) offers an up-close, personal look at the full life cycle of a company –- from start-up to boom to downturn. In Entrepreneur, Thomas uses the story of Net2000 as a chronological backdrop covering both the company's growth and trials and tribulations.
Thomas, who maintains that during the Net2000 days he "did a lot of things very well and made a lot of mistakes too," structured Entrepreneur to reflect the lessons he learned along the way. Entrepreneur includes 50 lessons learned that educate readers on how American capitalism really works.
According to Thomas, "Business creation and growth bring challenges, tension, creativity and hope. I found inspiration where there was defeat, and joy when there were successes. In business, you can count on experiencing both. Net2000 and Claris Capital have led me to divulge the inside stories and lessons of running a business and what you can expect to endure. Through it all, however, there is an incessant hunger to push aside the obstacles and accelerate to the next level. And I hope that this book not only gives you the principles to start a business, but also imparts that same courageous drive to succeed."
Kenzi Sugihara, Publisher at SelectBooks, commented, "We are pleased to announce the publication of Entrepreneur: A CEO's Lessons in American Capitalism and our affiliation with Charlie Thomas. This title will provide invaluable advice and guidance to other entrepreneurs, would-be entrepreneurs and business leaders."
Charlie Thomas is Chief Executive Officer of Razorsight. Entrepreneur: A CEO's Lessons in American Capitalism is now available in bookstores nationwide. For a personally signed copy, you can also order on-line at www.ceolessons.com.
