It goes without saying that 2020 was one of the most disruptive, eventful, innovative and surprising years the business and startup community has ever experienced.
And while I think I speak for many when I say ‘good riddance 2020, hello 2021’, it would be a waste to head into the new year without hard lessons learnt and a plan in place.
So, in the spirit of learning from mistakes, taking risks and moving forward, we asked 16 entrepreneurs what their biggest focus is for 2021.
Here’s what they had to say.

A quick search for business books on Google, or on the shelves of your local book store, will likely leave you overwhelmed for options.
The fact is, there are thousands of business-related books out there claiming to have the answers to an entrepreneur’s burning questions.
So how do you choose? How do you know what is worth reading, and what will really make you a better leader and manager?
On that front, we’ve got you covered. We asked 18 entrepreneurs to pick one book that has changed the way they do business.

So, if you are struggling to switch off this Christmas, here are some tried-and-tested tips from fellow entrepreneurs.
