A positive attitude, the ability to adapt to change, and the willingness
to learn from failure . . . these are all good markers of a successful
person. But what does it take to become a successful
entrepreneur--someone who can create something out of nothing? Someone
who can start from the bottom and work their way to the top?
In Dr. William Pickard's new book Surviving the Shift, this is exactly
what he provides. As one of the country's most successful Black
entrepreneurs, Dr. Pickard knows a thing or two about overcoming failure
and mistakes to become an extraordinary entrepreneur. In this book, he
details the highs and lows of his entrepreneurial evolution and offers
seven proven principles for embracing change and building wealth.

- Prepare for opportunities.
- Understand that financing is not that difficult.
- Build good relationships.
- Choose a team with the right talent and skill set.
- Learn from failure.
- Cultivate strong faith.
Successful entrepreneurship requires a shift in thinking, planning, and
doing. It requires avoiding the many pitfalls people often face in
business. Whether you are a new college graduate ready to make your mark
on the world, someone who is trying to figure out the next step for
their career, an aspiring entrepreneur, or you want to explore new ways
to grow your business, you have the power to become the person you were
meant to be. This book is your road map, and Dr. Pickard has equipped
you with everything you need for your journey.
