Make No Small Plans: Lessons on Thinking Big, Chasing Dreams, and Building Community

From the founders of the acclaimed Summit event series, comes the story of their unconventional journey to business success. In 2008, with no event production experience and college degrees, Elliott Bisnow, Brett Leve, Jeff Rosenthal, and Jeremy Schwartz became business partners and founded Summit. Despite initial challenges, they grew the company into a global community hosting people like Jeff Bezos, Richard Branson, and Shonda Rhimes.

In 2013, with the help of Ryan Begelman, they acquired Powder Mountain, the largest ski resort in the US, aiming to build a mountaintop town. In this book, the founders share their triumphs, mistakes, and key lessons learned during the Great Recession and beyond. Entertaining and empowering, the book teaches how to achieve big things with knowledge, talent, and humility.
