About the author

Michael E. Gerber is a true legend of entrepreneurship. Inc. Magazine called him "the World's #1 Small Business Guru." He started over 40-plus years ago addressing a significant need in the small business market: businesses owned primarily by people with technical skills but few business skills, and no place to go to get meaningful help.
Over the years, Michael E. Gerber's companies have helped hundreds of thousands of small business owner-clients to successfully transform their businesses into world-class operations.
Mr. Gerber's E-Myth books include: The Most Successful Small Business in the World, Awakening the Entrepreneur Within, The E-Myth Enterprise, The E-Myth Mastery, The E-Myth Manager, along with co-authored E-Myth Vertical books: The E-Myth Attorney, The E-Myth Accountant, The E-Myth Optometrist, The E-Myth Chiropractor, The E-Myth Financial Advisor, The E-Myth Landscape Contractor, The E-Myth Architect, The E-Myth Real Estate Brokerage, The E-Myth Insurance Store, The E-Myth Dentist, The E-Myth Nutritionist, The E-Myth Bookkeeper, The E-Myth Veterinarian, and the first of Gerber's newest C-Level series: The E-Myth Chief Financial Officer. Soon to be released, The E-Myth Real Estate Agent.

- Reviewed in the United States on August 3, 2023Well and carefully packaged. The book was not damaged. I bought it with 3 other books and they were all good. Delivery was on time. Everything was good.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 8, 2014This is an awesome book. It really helped me to understand my OWN vision and focus. I have managed for several years and yes, have always looked at the owners goals etc. I need to work on my own personal strengths and build my own self up to be the best I can be ! I loved the book because it was just a freshing new way to understand management. It opened my eyes.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 11, 2009If you have ever read any other books or white papers on management, I'd wager that at the end you still had a nagging feeling that you STILL didn't get how to put their theories into practice. This book takes a totally different approach to management, that you don't and can't manage people you manage processes. With that said, it gives you a concrete tactical approach to your problems in management. Easy,fast,read, written as a story.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 9, 2016Good reading for managers
- Reviewed in the United States on September 2, 2015Excellent book. It goes against the grain as far what we learn in our universities, but
I highly recommend this book for any business major or accounting student.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 22, 2013I love all the E-Myth books by Michael Gerber! Read them all. Now I just gotta find my niche and go for it!
- Reviewed in the United States on April 9, 2018I LOVED the E-Myth, which makes this book so incredibly disappointing.
- The contrived premise with "Jack" is annoying and unbelievable.
- It seemed that every other page was an advertisement for the E-Myth Academy.
- The "speech texts" were long and unnecessary.
- The whole fixation on "Emperor" and the conflict between Management, Ownership, and Personal Life was convoluted
There were a few nugget buried in the pages, but it was not worth the read to find them.
