Failing in business

Adrian Furnham

A chapter in Head & Heart Management, 2008, pp 77-79 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The statistics on business failure, especially with respect to small businesses, are depressing. In some sectors, such as restaurants, more fail than succeed. And success is defined merely as staying in business … sort of solvent … for a year or two.
