“Do you know what success looks like in your business three years from now? Do you know what it looks like one year from now? If you don’t know where you are going, I promise you won’t get there.” – Mark Moses

MIAMI, FLA (Oct. 21, 2021) – In his first book, MAKE BIG HAPPEN: How to Live, Work, and Give BIG, Mark Moses outlined the four critical questions that formed the foundation of CEO Coaching International, an executive coaching firm that has helped more than 875 companies reach extraordinary revenue and EBITDA growth. Now, in the follow up book MAKING BIG HAPPEN: Applying the Make BIG Happen System to Grow Big (Advantage Media; Hardcover; Jan. 11, 2022), Mark Moses, Don Schiavone, Craig Coleman, and Chris Larkins have translated the firm’s proven set of best practices into a simple three-step process, supported by over 30 tools, to show leaders how to achieve extraordinary business growth.

The Make BIG Happen System is a structured planning and execution framework that creates directional clarity and operational results with a set of expert-crafted tools layered on top. It enables companies to grow rapidly because it gives leaders a clear picture of where they want to go, and a repeatable system with specific and measurable activities that will get them there.

The Make BIG Happen System is comprised of three simple elements:

    1. Establish and Maintain the Make BIG Happen Rhythms to Establish Structure
    2. Apply the Make BIG Happen Questions to Take Action
    3. Leverage the Proven Make BIG Happen Tools to Accelerate Your Success

Born from the authors’ collective experiences running, turning around, and successfully exiting complex businesses, the Make BIG Happen System is enriched by the crowdsourced practice of having been applied to hundreds of companies around the world. It brings together all the conditions that success requires—thoughtful strategy, meticulous planning, a system to keep score, and an empowered team of the world’s best talent—operating within a culture of accountability that drives constant achievement and consistent growth.

This book breaks the system down in a way that is easy to understand and implement and is sprinkled with the fascinating stories of dozens of companies that have experienced the tremendous success that the system enables.

MAKING BIG HAPPEN is available for pre-order and will go on sale everywhere books are sold on January 11, 2022. Visit ceocoachinginternational.com/makingbighappen/ for more information about the book and ceocoachinginternational.com/ to learn more about the executive coaching firm.
