We are often told by many Barefoot Bowlers that they have driven passed the bowls club for many years and did not realise what a beautiful facility we have. Our immediate neighbors are Travelodge, Restaurant 98 and the Edge. We have a great view of the Fitzroy River with the Berserker Mountains in the background. Bowling at night is magic. There is always progress going on at the Rockhampton Bowls Club. BBQs are a great feature of the Club`s income stream. Continuing with the 5 year plan our BBQ facility that has serviced the club so well of many years is now being upgraded.

We need “color.” Unfortunately, most of what is written about China these days falls into the “grey theory” category. Countless pages have been devoted to the China “model,” China’s “rise,” or even its “coming collapse.” But little of this gives us any real feeling of what it’s like to live and work there.

  • How to Create the Next Facebook: Seeing Your Startup Through, from Idea to IPO Copyright © 2012 by Tom Taulli All Rights Reserved
    BOOKS FOR PROFESSIONALS BY PROFESSIONALS® TAULLI HOW TO CREATE THE NEXT FACEBOOK Seeing Your Startup Through, from Idea to IPO HOW TO CREATE THE NEXT FACEBOOK Facebook is, far and away, the single most documented company of the 21st century. But despite the extensive coverage that has been given to the company in the years since founder Mark Zuckerberg fi rst took Facebook live, one question remains unanswered: How, exactly, did a college student take a relatively simple idea and then, less than ten years lat- er, turn it into one of the most successful startups the world has ever seen? In How to Cre- ate the Next Facebook, tech guru Tom Taulli answers this question and in doing so reveals the step-by-step process that built Facebook into the dominant company that it is today. Regardless of what stage of development your startup is in, How to Create the Next Facebook provides you with the clear, compelling, and ultimately actionable advice you need to replicate Facebook’s startup success story. You’ll learn how Facebook handled the very same situations your startup is confronting—from how it arrived at its mission state- ment to what its priorities were during its talent search process—before gaining access to all the concrete, practical guidance you need to make the right decisions for your company. And, of course, because Facebook didn’t get everything right at fi rst, Taulli painstakingly details the company’s most costly mistakes so that you can arm your company against the various challenges that threaten to sink even the very best startups.
