When women support women, it’s a beautiful thing! Liz Elting’s book reads like fiction but is a captivating biography and how-to guide for those inclined to blaze a new trail. For the first time, entrepreneur, philanthropist, and ‘Forbes’ Richest Self-Made Woman Liz Elting shares her story on how she co-founded and grew TransPerfect, the billion-dollar translation and language solutions company that began as a dream in an NYU dorm room. In Dream Big and Win, Elting divulges practical and inspiring tips you can implement immediately, teaching why success is not solely about attaining and wielding power. Elting shows that fulfilling your highest potential will require you to look beyond yourself. In her honest and often humorous narrative, Elting illustrates why actions are more important than mantras and why doing will always eclipse dreaming.
Liz’s book is a must-read for entrepreneurs and anyone who enjoys applying an entrepreneurial perspective to what they do. Liz is evidently accomplished and aspirational, yet highly unpretentious and relatable in the wisdom and tales she conveys throughout Dream Big and Win.
She walks the talk and is also the real deal concerning being a self-made billion-dollar founder, having created her business without outside funding, gifts, loans, or investors. What’s so unique about this book is how Liz pulls back the curtain on the myth of the prototypical billion-dollar door-room startup, deciphering what it takes to thrive as an entrepreneur in a way that anyone can replicate. Liz outlines how she built her business from scratch and accomplished so much in truthfully practical, actionable, and universally applicable terms. I am lucky to have had a chance to read an advance copy of this book.
