David Mellor 
From Crew to Captain 
Making the Transition from Working for a Big Institution, to Working for Yourself

The purpose of this book is to help people understand the transition from working for a big institution to working for themselves. David Mellor has made this journey and shows others how to do the same. He shows readers how to prosper rather than to merely survive and how their business venture will bring everything they wish for. The journey will take you through three very important phases: Reflecting – what does it take to make this transition – and is it for you?; Planning – how do you go about preparing to launch your business?; and, Doing – what attributes are going to be really important in the early days postlaunch? You will be given practical tips and hints, all garnered from the ‘University of Life’.
