Faced with a storm by changing economic realities and a real-life tornado, she offers the lessons for balancing aspiration and assessment and creating a culture to drive growth and success. As her book title says, it is indeed about stepping up and taking bold moves."<br> --J. R. "Pitt" Hyde III, Founder AutoZone<p> "Carolyn Hardy's book has great advice for budding entrepreneurs and for those who have already started their businesses. Much of what she writes reminds me of two key discoveries my dad, Kemmons Wilson, uncovered in his business career. He would have loved to have had the advice Carolyn offers before he started Holiday Inns and Holiday Inn Club Vacations. He was a man of action---'Ready...Fire...Aim' was his mantra. And one of his Twenty Tips is an important reminder to all----'Remember that success requires half luck and half brains.' Thank you, Carolyn, for sharing your discoveries in your book."<br> --Spence Wilson, Sr., Chairman, Kemmons Wilson Companies, Chairman, Holiday Inn Club Vacations<p> "As an entrepreneur by trade, bold moves and big ideas can be the difference between success and failure. <i>Step Out</i> not only stresses the importance of enterprise leadership, it also provides an up front and honest blueprint on solving some of the most complex business problems alongside your most important asset--your people."<br> --Randy Boyd, President, University of Tennessee System, Founder/Chairman, Radio Systems Corporation<p> "The overwhelming majority of minority-owned businesses are first-generation firms born from the passion of the owner and pure entrepreneurial grit.

Carolyn Hardy's Step Out: Bold Moves for Business Growth offers actual strategies and insight that business owners can use as an additional resource."<br> --Jozelle Luster Booker, President and CEO, The MMBC Continuum<p> "Carolyn Hardy, by definition, understands how to operate, lead and manage big organizations, supply chains and teams of people successfully.
