A Case Study of Growing a Company the Right Way

I read 'It isn't Just Business' about a month ago and was genuinely surprised at the methods and philosophy utilized to grow PAETEC from start up to over $1 billion in under a decade. While entertaining, the book is really a road map of how to build a great company. I speak with CEOs about business models virtually ever day; PAETEC is what I would define as a truly special organization. Robert Reiss Host, The CEO Show

Good Book, Good Business, and I Feel Good About It

Companies like PAETEC help make Rochester, New York a great community to work and live in. Having only been founded in 1998, and making a few thousand dollars that year, to becoming a $1B company in 2007 is not just a local success, but a human achievement of historic proportions. It addresses a most basic need of human beings: to communicate with one another. What the company offers outside is really a reflection of what is inside: employees who are treated as human beings and are encouraged to communicate with one another to learn, to work, and to prosper. Also have fun. This book is their story.
