The path to business success is an open road and you'd better be ready for anything!
What do businesspeople and entrepreneurs have in common with bikers? More than you'd suspect. The freedom of hitting the open road is a concrete extension of the need for freedom that encourages entrepreneurs to start businesses. The desire to succeed in business by doing it your own way is no different than the desire to hit the road and plot your own course on two wheels.
The Biker's Guide to Business explores these parallels and offers hard-won business wisdom specially suited for Business Bikers who do it their way-whether out on the highways or in the corporate boardroom.
- Introduces DeVille's Navigation Process that helps you develop your own action plan for achieving your own unique vision of success
- Shows you how to tailor a road map to guide your personal journey from where you are now to where you want to be tomorrow
- Uses biker terminology, analogies, and parallels to communicate real business wisdom
- Though written to appeal to bikers, the book is a handy business guide for anyone willing to take the ride
Whether or not you're a biker, the passion to ride is the same passion that pushes people to succeed professionally by taking their own path. Hop on, rev up, and succeed.

--Brett Fadeley, CEO, eSchool Solutions
Dwain was able to successfully transition our management structure and helped to shift culture into a more productive, stable, and happy environment and our revenues have risen, which has proven invaluable.
--Jim Cross, Managing Partner, Cross, Fernandez & Riley, LLP
Dwain's presentation was dead-on in terms of illustrating to my students that entrepreneurship is a mind-set--a way of thinking. This is what I had been attempting to teach these students, but it is so much more powerful if they see it and get it themselves. They did see it through Dwain, in his presentation, his demeanor, and the illustrations he used to solidify the points he made in his lecture. I couldn't have asked for more in terms of creating value for my students.
--William Rossi, Clinical Professor of Entrepreneurship, Associate Director, Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation, University of Florida
Dwain has been a fantastic business coach! When we started working together over two years ago, he made me set an aggressive five-year revenue goal. Two and a half years later, I beat it!
