A leading mind in business growth for 30 years in Silicon Valley, Venture Capitalist, and Author Philippe Bouissou, Ph.D.

Aligning the Dots: The new paradigm to grow any business



Publisher: Onward Business Press Author Website: https://philippebouissou.com/



It's eight o'clock Monday morning. What do you do to outpace the market and grow faster than your competitors? Aligning the Dots provides a clear answer to that deceptively simple question.

Although many how-to-grow business books have been published, none offer a pragmatic and reliable blueprint for top-line growth that is built on deep data analysis and a universal framework that leads to revealing insights. Without a clear roadmap to growth, a CEO's demands for innovative product development, better marketing, and increased customer acquisition and conversion often fail to produce desired outcomes. An effective leader understands that without clear direction and guidance, teams will revert to business as usual and no amount of inspirational taglines will help the business grow faster.

Aligning the Dots introduces a new paradigm. It's a universal, data-driven and prescriptive methodology, called A4 Precision Alignment™, designed to accelerate any business. Based on the profound insight that the maximum top-line growth rate can only be achieved when a business and its target market are perfectly aligned, this methodology reveals how quantitative measurements of alignment form the base for the development a Growth Playbook.

That blueprint will guide any business to align the dots to outperform its target market and fly past its competitors.



In an interview on your program Dr. Philippe Bouissou can discuss:



1. There are 11,000 business books published every year. Why should we talk about your Book?



2. What results does this new paradigm to grow any business deliver?



3. Why did you choose to focus on the topic of growth?



4. What is unique about Aligning the Dots?



5. What are the traditional methods to grow a business?



6. Why do these traditional ways of growing a business rarely work?



7. What is counterintuitive about your new paradigm?



8. What is surprising about it?



9. How does it provoke new thoughts or bring “conventional wisdom” into question?



10. How did you come up with this new idea?



11. What in your background was critical to invent this new paradigm?



12. Does this new methodology apply to any business?



13. Can you give an example of a bad and a good alignment?



14. Who is the audience for this book?



15. How does the COVID19 pandemic affect the teachings in this system?







Aligning the Dots offers a new systematic methodology for optimizing resource allocation towards long-

term profitable growth. Philippe Bouissou’s engaging style uses a combination of personal anecdotes,

scientific analogies, and relevant case studies to convey his message of alignment. While the target

audience cuts across the broad business community, I find the methodology to be most directly relevant

to young technology startups who have a very low margin for error in their business model.

—Eric Benhamou Founder and General Partner, Benhamou Global Ventures and Former Chairman and CEO of 3Com

Every executive intuitively knows the importance of aligning what a company sells with what its customers

want, but few executives actually know how to do it right. In his smart, new book—Aligning the Dots—

business growth expert Philippe Bouissou presents a simple, but powerful framework for building

alignment along four critical business axes. No matter what size your business or what industry you’re in,

Aligning the Dots is the playbook you need to spark revenue growth right now — and well into the future.

—Peter Economy The Leadership Guy, Inc. Magazine

Aligning the Dots offers a precise, logical way to understand how the fundamental drivers of business

work, and how to align your company with them for long-term success. It’s the rare book that combines a

comprehensive science of how business works with dozens of practical tips that any leader can apply.

—Chris Yeh Co-author with Reid Hoffman of Blitzscaling

I’ve seen so many businesses struggle as the vision and expectations of entrepreneurs and company operators

are out of sync with the customer or the marketplace. Aligning the Dots provides an articulate, pragmatic,

and innovative framework for solving these misalignments. It is a resource that can and should be

referenced repeatedly to help pressure test strategy and plans for the competitive edge that derives from precision alignment.

—Lori Bush Former President and CEO, Rodan + Fields

Genius often creates out-of-the-box thinking. Aligning the Dots makes you think differently and that makes

it powerful. Any business should understand and use these concepts.

—Nolan Bushnell CEO of X2 Games Founder and former CEO of Atari and Chuck E Cheese!

Praise for Radical Collaboration

This book opened my eyes and has given me the tools to collaborate with a clear head. The first section of the book identifies the signs you are becoming defensive, the second part elaborates and helps you explore your subconscious to discover why you are really becoming defensive. It has become easy for me to identify when my response to a situation is irrational due to all of my underlying insecurities weighing in. The book also does a great job pointing out your flaws without making you dwell on the past, it has the intention of exciting you to do better in the future. The last part of the book helps you with techniques for effective collaboration. I recommend this book to everyone, I think it will add value to anyone's life.
―Reader Synopsis

I am a psychotherapist, and not only have I found this book to be an excellent summation of ways to help improve ALL relationships, but it has also become a good tool I use as I go through the book with my clients. Want to have better relationships? Figure out what your own defenses are and why you have them. Then learn how to deal with your own, and with those defenses that other people have. Then with an increased sense of safety, openness becomes much easier. This is a very well written, easy to read pathway to improved relationships. What could be more valuable?

MATZOBALL hosting largest online speed dating event ever held

NEW YORK, New York – (December 17, 2020) – MATZOBALL has shattered the Guinness World Record for the largest speed dating event. The MATZOBALL Online, to be held on Christmas Eve 2020, already has 1154 people registered to participate, with many more expected to register before the event begins. The event starts at 9 p.m. on Christmas Eve and will be held virtually in 23 cities across five countries. The virtual record is the first for MATZOBALL, which has held the dating party annually since 1987.

“This event has been so well received,” explains Andrew Rudnick, from Mazel Events, LLC and founder of the MATZOBALL. “We are all excited that this will be the largest and most successful speed dating event the world has ever seen. Not only can people get an opportunity to meet their soul mate, but they can also be a fun part of making this historical record.”

The current largest speed dating event, according to Guinness World Records, took place in Dublin, Ireland, on February 14, 2019. The number of people who participated in the Valentine’s Day speed dating event was 964. The MATZOBALL Online speed dating event has already surpassed that number in terms of how many people have registered to take part. The number will continue to climb as more people register each day leading up to and on the event day.

Each year, MATZOBALL holds its famous Jewish singles holiday party, giving people a chance to meet others. Some people have met for just that one fun-filled night, while others have developed long-lasting romantic relationships and friendships. Each year, there are over 400,000 people who attend the MATZOBALL holiday party.

This year, due to the pandemic, the event will be held online using special technology that will allow thousands of people to engage in a speed dating event at one time. While the speed dating event will be held online, participants are encouraged to still dress up to put forth their best image. The event will feature Regional Video Speed Dating, which will include pre-screened eligible singles. All of the speed dates will be held in a one-on-one setting.

The MATZOBALL Online will be broken down by region and age range. Each person who registers for the speed dating will get a minimum of 20-30, 5-minute dates. During that time, they will have the opportunity to choose whom they felt they had a connection with. When there is a mutual connection shared, the two people will be notified via email 15 minutes after the event ends. This will give them an opportunity to explore the connection more.

Tickets to the event are $35, plus a $5 processing fee per person for the Christmas Eve event, and $55, plus a $5 processing fee for the professional’s speed dating event on Christmas Day. A combination ticket to participate in both events can be purchased for $75, plus a $5 processing fee. Age ranges people can choose from are 21-27, 28-35, 36-49, and 50+. MATZOBALL will also be hosting a LGBTQ Jewish speed dating event on December 24, 2020, at 9 p.m. Space is limited, and tickets are expected to sell out. Tickets are $35, plus a $5 processing fee.

The regional areas where the event will be taking place include:

•Atlanta
•Boca/Delray Beach
•Boston
•Chicago
•Dallas
•Los Angeles
•Miami
•New York
•Philadelphia
•San Diego
•San Francisco
•Washington DC
•Seattle
•Denver
•Orlando
•Phoenix
•Cleveland
•Montreal
•Toronto
•London
•Sydney
•Tel Aviv
•Melbourne

“We are thrilled to have beaten the record for the largest speed dating event,” adds Rudnick. “We look forward to the event taking place and helping many Jewish singles come together. This is one event you don’t want to miss and this year you don’t even have to leave home to join in!”

Those who purchase a ticket to the hottest virtual party will receive a unique log-in link 24 hours before the event. They will be able to narrow their search by choosing their age and regional preferences. The event will also use fast match technology for those who feel they made a connection with someone. There will be an additional online speed dating event for professionals held on Christmas Day at 3 pm. Space for this event is limited.
