For women entrepreneurs (and anyone sick of the status quo), this
smart, unapologetic collection delivers fifty proven hacks to leapfrog
over obstacles and succeed in business.
A must-read for any woman who has a great idea and the nagging thought
that doors are closed to her; Molina Niño helps to blow them
open.--Publishers Weekly
Think the most critical factor for becoming a great entrepreneur is
grit, risk-taking, or technical skills? Think again. Despite what every
other business book might say, historical data show the real secret
ingredients to getting ahead in business are being rich, white, and
male.
Until now. Leapfrog is the decades-overdue startup bible for the rest
of us. It's filled with uncompromising guidance for winning at business,
your way. Leapfrog is for entrepreneurs of all stripes who are fed up
with status quo advice--the kind that assumes you have rich friends and
family and a public relations team.
Refreshingly frank and witty, author Nathalie Molina Niño is a serial
tech entrepreneur, the founder and CEO of BRAVA Investments, and a proud
daughter of Latinx immigrants. While teaching budding entrepreneurs at
Barnard College at Columbia University and searching the globe for
investment-worthy startups, she has met or advised thousands of
entrepreneurs who've gone from zero to scalable business. Here she
shares their best secrets in the form of fifty leapfrogs--clever
loopholes and shortcuts to outsmart, jump over, or straight up
annihilate the seemingly intractable hurdles facing entrepreneurs who
don't have family money, cultural capital, or connections.
