About The Book
It is the story of those leaders and organizations that have seen consistent growth through several economic crises-companies that were founded in the late 1700’s to early 1900’s and they are still in business thriving today.
In this book we share their stories, their struggles, and tell you exactly how they have not only overcome adversity, but thrived through it.

Raves and Reviews
The timing of Thrive simply could not be any better. Just when we all thought the COVID flame was burning out, along comes the Delta strain, and businesses just getting back on their feet are threatened again with uncertainty and fear.
What makes this book especially refreshing is that author Meridith Elliott Powell--a well-known business expert enjoying a successful career--doesn’t promise readers that they’ll make a six or seven figure income by following a few seemingly easy steps. Powell transparently shares that she too has been hit hard by the pandemic. But her response to her own setbacks and challenges was to create a guide of how business owners can navigate uncertain times and keep afloat, whether a multi-national company, a mom and pop store, or even a freelancer. Using examples of real companies throughout its pages, Powell shares the genius, the perils, and the pitfalls, providing a summary of practical tools and resources any reader can implement to not only survive but also thrive through the uncertainty they may be experiencing currently and in the future. An excellent read!
