Book overview
Your business is dying. Not quickly-that would force honest recognition-but slowly and comfortably. You're surrounded by leaders nodding along to the same recycled platitudes that created the problem.
Eighty percent of businesses are stagnating right now. Most leaders will read the same books, hire the same consultants, and implement the same frameworks as their competitors and wonder why they can't get ahead by running the exact same plays.
Todd Hagopian built a $3 billion plus track record across Fortune 500 turnarounds by doing the opposite of everything consultants taught him. He systematized that approach into nine weaponized frameworks, the HOT System, and field-tested them across Berkshire Hathaway, Illinois Tool Works, Whirlpool, and his own company, which he doubled in value in three years.
The Stagnation Assassin offers the complete arsenal: The 80/20-Squared that reveals how 4 percent of your business creates 64 percent of your value, the Karelin Method that delivers 5.76 times the productivity, the 3-A Method that enables fifty-two improvement projects annually instead of three to four, and the Orthodoxy-Smashing Framework that breaks the invisible rules strangling your industry.
No consultants required. No six-month studies. No Option C. You have ninety days. Optimize to death or declare war on stagnation. The war begins Monday morning.
