Innovations abound, from training a Percheron to help build Domaine Chandon's stone walls, creating new products while building strong brands, and finding solutions to survive recessions, to raising heirloom pigs as a marketing tool for St. Sup ry. There was time for a successful crusade against neo-prohibitionists and memorable shopping expeditions in Paris with the owner's fashionable wife.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFull of personal anecdotes that range from funny to sobering, this book is an insider's peek into the Napa phenomenon that came into its own even as the author's career blossomed and matured. It offers up cautionary tales, notably about projecting the future, and \"Aha \" moments that endure. Recognizing and creating opportunities, welcoming innovation, and developing talent are hallmarks of what some may consider the author's eccentric leadership style. \u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 294\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.62 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 03, 2015\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52242126766354,"sku":"9780989634243","price":33.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/2211\/5346\/files\/SWhFZm5YZmVaYUdmZXhSZjBzelZ2Zz09.webp?v=1777912176","url":"https:\/\/ckbookstore.net\/products\/bubbles-to-boardrooms-serendipitous-stories-from-inside-the-wine-business-paperback","provider":"CK BOOKSTORE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
