Rocket Fuel cover

This insightful guide reveals how the partnership between Visionaries and Integrators can transform your business. Rocket Fuel showcases their crucial roles in achieving success.

In Rocket Fuel, the author explores the essential partnership between two key roles in any successful business: the Visionary and the Integrator. Visionaries are the dreamers, the ones who generate innovative ideas and set the direction for the future. However, without the Integrator, who is responsible for executing these ideas and ensuring that day-to-day operations run smoothly, those visions can remain just that—dreams without a pathway to reality. This book delves into how these two roles, when effectively aligned, can propel a company from uncertainty to success.

The narrative draws on real-world examples from well-known companies such as Disney, McDonald's, and Ford, illustrating how the collaboration between Visionaries and Integrators has been pivotal in their growth and success. The author emphasizes that this dynamic duo is not just beneficial but essential for any organization aiming to thrive in today’s competitive landscape. The synergy created between these two distinct roles can lead to remarkable outcomes, making it possible for businesses to achieve their ultimate goals.

Additionally, Rocket Fuel provides practical advice for individuals who identify as either Visionaries or Integrators, offering assessments to help readers understand their strengths. The book encourages these individuals to seek partnerships that complement their skill sets, highlighting that the absence of one role can hinder the potential of the other. Together, they create a powerful force that can elevate any business to new heights, akin to the propulsion of a rocket.

"Rocket Fuel is a powerful model for freeing up entrepreneurial visionaries to do what they do best. Gino and Mark provide a practical gameplan for building an organization that perfectly combines vision and integration."
Dan Sullivan, President and Founder of Strategic Coach (R)

"In this brilliant book, Gino Wickman and Mark C. Winters explain the vital importance of having both a visionary and an integrator and show how that relationship can provide the 'rocket fuel' your company needs to achieve its full potential."
Bo Burlingham, Editor-at-Large of Inc. magazine and author of Small Giants and Finish Big: How Great Entrepreneurs Exit Their Companies on Top
