The New Builders

Face to Face With the True Future of Business

By: Seth Levine, Elizabeth MacBride, Tyra Banks - foreword

Narrated by: Adam Verner, Machelle Williams

The New Builders: Face to Face with the True Future of Business delivers a powerful argument for the empowerment and support of our female and BIPOC founders.

Today's entrepreneurs don't look like those of the past. They are increasingly Black, Brown, female, and older than you might expect them to be. But they're not getting the support they need to succeed in rebuilding America, because our business culture has become so consumed with celebrating size above all else. In this book, the distinguished authors explore the indelible value of small business in America and the future of sustainable business.

In The New Builders, you'll learn: Who are the fastest growing groups of entrepreneurs? What are they working on, and what drives them?; the real engine that drove Silicon Valley's entrepreneurs; the depth and extent to which entrepreneurs and small businesses are woven through our country's history and the ways we have forgotten women and people of color who owned small businesses in the past; how we're increasingly afraid to fail; the role small businesses are playing saving the wilderness, small towns, and redlined communities; what we can do to turn the decline in entrepreneurship around, especially by supporting the people who are courageously starting small companies today; and more.

Truly outstanding - thought provoking, well researched, and well written

I LOVED this book. I learned things about entrepreneurship and the people who are starting businesses today that I had no idea about. It completely changed the way I think about today’s entrepreneurs and how we can help them be successful (that we must help them be successful). The book made me think differently even about the word entrepreneur and what it really means. Bravo!
