Business Growth Books
A curated collection of books that introduce the principles, frameworks, and thinking behind Summit OS® and Strategy OS®.

Buyable: Turning Your Business into a Valuable, Transferable Asset

Steve Preda distilled the experiences of his 20-year journey as a business owner, investment banker, and business coach into a holistic program that helps you figure out what you really want, and how you can get there with the help of your business.
The tricks, tips and mindsets of creating a buyable business are illustrated by over 100 real life stories from Steve’s career.
Each book in the Summit OS Library addresses a different dimension of building a strong business — from execution and alignment, to strategy and differentiation, to long-term value creation within the Summit OS® and Strategy OS® frameworks.
Together, they give leaders and guides a shared language and mental models for diagnosing problems, making decisions, and preparing for structured implementation.
These books are used both by business owners building their own companies and by certified Summit OS Guides™ when working with leadership teams.
