In Crossing The Road To Entrepreneurship, Bert L. Wolstein, master entrepreneur, draws from decades of experience in the commercial real estate development industry to offer readers valuable lessons on how to start, grow, and maintain successful businesses. He shows how the combination of business sense and common sense helped him cross over to the proverbial ‘right side of the tracks’ via a host of different business ventures spanning 50 years.

In this intimate look at his life, Bart Wolstein shares how he reacted to pivotal moments in his life, giving readers valuable insights into handling their own entrepreneurial ventures. He shows how his roll-up-your-sleeve work ethic allowed him to succeed even when others didn’t see his vision, and worse yet, expected him to fail. Would-be entrepreneurs and managers alike will examine a host of experiences and lessons that transcend the college classroom and provide real world tactics for solving many dilemmas entrepreneurs may face, including:

• How to get funding for a new business venture
• How to get an inside track into making an important sale
• How to recover if a business partnership ends
• How to get the most out of your employees
• How to balance work and family

But successful business owners will tell you that succeeding as an entrepreneur involves more than knowing how to run a business. That’s why Bart Wolstein explores the personal side of entrepreneurship from the responsibility of giving back to the community to applying an entrepreneurial approach to managing personal relationships and one’s own healthcare.
