About the Author
Tom Gegax has been there, grown that, from five vantage points - an executive at one of the world's largest corporations; a start-up entrepreneur; a CEO leading sixteen hundred employees; a business consultant; and a member of numerous boards. By the time Tom sold his company in July 2000 to a multinational firm, it had mushroomed from a concept sketched on a restaurant napkin to a market leader in its ten-state region with $200 million in revenue.
