BizSugar.com › Management › \"Boss Life\" Gives a Realistic View of Small Business Ownership

There are plenty of books on management and leadership today, but none comes close to the raw honesty and grit that you will find in “Boss Life: Surviving My Own Small Business” by Paul Downs.
In this short, but highly impactful read, Downs takes the reader on a year-long journey in the pursuit of life as a “boss”. Downs defines a “boss” as the owner and manager of a small business (less than 25 employees) who handles everything from signing paychecks to fixing equipment.
Downs wrote the book after becoming a New York Times columnist. He writes the “You’re The Boss” blog, a site that discusses the personal issues faced by small business owners. He also takes time to write articles on small business for The New York Times, Fortune, and other magazines.
