“I've often said that you can't teach a person to be an entrepreneur, but John Mullins's book comes as close as you'll get to doing just that by uncovering the mindsets that lead to entrepreneurial actions. By focusing on these mindsets, Mullins suggests ways to bring out the entrepreneur in many of us.”

“The ‘entrepreneurial mindset’ is an enigma. To the uninitiated it is a mystery how some people just seem to have the knack for recognizing opportunity, attracting talent, and initiating focused, driven collaboration that creates value for customers, and potentially fortunes, for their team, their investors, and themselves. With Break the Rules!, John Mullins has decoded the mystery.
