PRAISE FOR STUCK IN THE MIDDLE SEAT "I wish Steve wrote this book twenty years ago before I embarked on my first start-up venture-a great resource full of practical and considered advice for anyone embarking on taking the leap. He's giving a fantastic head start in these pages." -Nathan Omodei, director and CEO, The Leisure Collective International, Australia "While the world was telling me how successful I was, Stephen has been there whispering in my ear, 'This is great and all, but you know you could do better.'

PRAISE FOR STUCK IN THE MIDDLE SEAT "I wish Steve wrote this book twenty years ago before I embarked on my first start-up venture-a great resource full of practical and considered advice for anyone embarking on taking the leap. He's giving a fantastic head start in these pages." -Nathan Omodei, director and CEO, The Leisure Collective International, Australia "While the world was telling me how successful I was, Stephen has been there whispering in my ear, 'This is great and all, but you know you could do better.' Now, thankfully, he's written a book to help cut through the BS. In a world of ego, I think you will find Stephen to be a refreshing pause that will make you, just like he has for me, stop, pause, think, and be honest with yourself." -Wil Reynolds, founder, SEER Interactive "Born out of Steve's own hustle, brilliance, and failures, Stuck in the Middle Seat is an explosion of 'aha!' moments that will jump-start your entrepreneurial spirit and steer you clear of trip wires along the way, in a no-nonsense business perspective." -Gina Montana, wealth advisor "I'll forever remember a strategy planning map that Steve provided me when setting up my own business that I have passed onto every manager I have had since. Everything with Steve was simple-his questions, his solutions, his advice, his mission, and his goals. Steve's self-belief oozed from every pore, and we share a common disdain for wasting time and lack of focus." -David Thompson, CEO, Envision Pharma Group, UK
