Soon, you—along with the majority of the global workforce—will need at least some understanding of how to run a business. Because your livelihood will depend on it. Award-winning former journalist Boni Wagner-Stafford and serial entrepreneur John Wagner-Stafford, co-founders of Ingenium Books, help you explore what it takes to work for yourself rather than someone else, including how to find your business idea and who might benefit.
