Well written book coming from a collection of real life experiences. The insight in this book is not just for turnarounds as there are some fundamentals of business that are easily forgotten. One of those books that you can refer back to time and time again to re-focus the basic blocking and tackling that any management team or owner should utilizing. The constant ties to aviation make this and enjoyable read.

-Shane Anderson

Well-written and presented in a format that is easy to read as well as grasp the key concepts, Philip Varley's Failure is not an Option is designed for the executive in a struggling company or in the midst of a turnaround. Yet, don't keep it at the executive level. I think it's the ideal book to put in the hands of any manager--so they "get it"--get the whys and how-tos of financial controls that don't break the morale of your employees yet create a clear path to financial survival and thrival.
