Business book ghostwriting services:
We can write your business biography.
By- Michael McKown
If you need your idea for a business book turned into reality, we can certainly do the writing. I have accomplished writers under contract who can deliver the business book of your dreams on time and on budget.
For me personally, I read a lot of what I call business biographies. I’ve got a big bookcase stuffed with them. Everything from legendary investor Warren Buffett to WalMart founder Sam Walton to Steve Jobs to Elon Musk to casino moguls, to a high-ranking advertising executive who lost his job but found salvation at the bottom of the ladder at Starbucks, to some kid whose first job was on a New England newspaper.
I’ve been well entertained by these stories, and you can believe I’ve learned a lot. If you’d like to discuss your business book with us, just click the Contact button.
What follows is an edited transcript of a client call this morning. One of my business writers accepted the project. He and the client will be in touch shortly. Here’s the client’s story, with identifying information redacted:
I’ve worked for [deleted] for about 20 years. I’m 42. I’m a leader within the company and I’m not teaching people how to build houses. I’m teaching people leadership every day and that’s the one differentiator from what I thought I would have been doing in this role.
Our company has a leadership program, and through my time in that program, they’ve helped me find my purpose. I think my purpose is to inspire growth in others. Book title: [deleted]. Topics: What does it mean to stay when everyone else moves on? Mine is a compelling story of a leader who chose to plant his roots in one company, to climb the ladder with humility and transfer team cultures and outcomes from the inside out through powerful lessons.
Honest reflections, heartfelt letters, this book offers a roadmap for building something that lasts, whether it’s a career, a company, or a legacy. This is more than a leadership book, this is a human story of commitment, growth, failure, faith, and a fierce belief in people. The purpose would be to inspire emerging leaders, or current leaders trying to find meaning in consistency and depth, rather than chasing the next big thing.
It will offer practical leadership insights rooted in long-term impact, not short-term gain. An opportunity for me to honor the people and the places that have invested in my journey and building a lasting narrative that becomes a guiding light for those who are coming behind me, inside or outside of the company. The thought process would be kind of a generic introduction of why I’ve stayed with one company for so long; it’s not the norm for a 42-year-old, and I don’t plan on ever leaving.
We’re teaching stay interviews instead of exit interviews every six months, and we’re really aiming just to get somebody to stay for 12 more months. What would it take? What can we do? And we do have the lowest turnover at the facility that I run. We’ve had 12.2% turnover in 12 months, and it’s really low from an industry that would probably see 100% turnover, and you don’t retain young people.
I want to teach others what matters, so a little bit about that introduction includes roots…a company worth believing in. I’ve walked through brick walls for them. First lessons, how failure formed me, the power of one conversation that I’ve had, leadership traits that last, becoming a leader that your people can trust, and some stories around building a culture of ownership, why patience pays, and loyalty to people and purpose. Letters to my mom and dad and mentors inside and outside of the business, how they shaped me, lessons learned, and a letter to the future me.
It’s your turn. Call me.
