Topia CEO pens lesson on biz growth

Janine Terrano, CEO and founder of Tacoma-based Topia Technology, one of the fastest growing companies in Washington, has contributed her knowledge and experiences on growing a successful small business in the newly released book, Small Business Growth Strategies.

Featuring CEOs and presidents from some of the nation's fastest-growing small companies, the book focuses on the importance of developing and communicating a strong company vision and adapting the leadership plan as the company grows. The featured executives discuss strategies for establishing and sustaining an environment of productivity, delegating responsibilities to key members of the management team, and overcoming challenges associated with leading a growing company.

Topia recently released SKOOT, which has been tested to send more than 65 gigabytes and allows businesses to send and receive files of no practical size limitation. The company also has multi-million dollar contracts with the Federal Aviation Association and the U.S. Army Intelligence and Security Command.

The book is now available at Amazon.com.
