FRANCHISING DEMANDS SUPERIOR LEADERS
50% of a franchise network's success depends on the business model components and 50% on leadership. However, many franchise leaders pay little attention to this latter aspect, which directly impacts growth.
This practical guide not only provides answers to the three major problems affecting franchise growth but also offers a proven leadership system to lay the foundation for your growth. Forget complex theories; this approach is straightforward and validated, illustrated with real case studies.
If you're looking to improve your franchise leadership skills, enhance your ability to connect with your franchisees, or develop the trust needed to garner the engagement you seek from your franchisees, this book is for you.

Stéphane Breault has been a CEO of Canadian franchise networks for two decades and a franchise expert for over 15 years. He has extensive franchise management experience, and his vision of franchising is clearly different. Unlike many franchise consultants who focus on the technical and tactical aspects of the business, Stephane works with CEOs and executives to become exceptional franchisors who value connected partnerships with franchisees.
He is reputed for being strategic and creative. Stéphane's direct approach provokes ideas that become the foundation of practical solutions that can be easily implemented. His style merges pragmatic experience with ways that motivate people to open up and get involved.
Stéphane has advised over 100 Canadian and international franchise networks have teamed up with Stéphane to plan their growth, redesign their business models, develop leadership within their executive teams, create a culture of operational excellence, and implement franchise networks with significant international potential.
Stéphane has served as Chairman of the Canadian Franchise Association and the Association des MBA du Québec. In January 2018, he was elected to the Conseil québécois de la franchise Hall of Fame. He also serves as a member of the board of the Conseil québécois de la franchise.

Drawing on his depth of experience leading and guiding franchise systems, Stéphane provides practical and actionable guidance. This valuable read is for those looking to achieve excellence in franchising.Brian Leon
Chief Executive Officer, Choice Hotels Canada I recently had the pleasure of reviewing For Franchise Leaders Eyes Only, by Stéphane Breault. From the very first line in the introduction, 'You are 100% responsible for the results you achieve, ' I knew this book was going to resonate with me-and it did not disappoint. What I appreciated most was the direct, no-nonsense approach. The book isn't filled with fluff or theory-it's a roadmap for any leader who is ready to embrace their own power and take control of their results. It challenges the reader to reflect deeply on their mindset and habits while providing the tools to transform both.
Ken LeBlanc
President, Propertyguys.com Stéphane Breault's combination of research, understanding, and franchise experience for many years is why For Franchise Leaders Eyes Only is such a strong must-read. As a leader in the Canadian Franchise community as President and CEO of The UPS Store Canada and Past Chair of The Canadian Franchise Association, I can say with certainty that Stéphane has created a must-read for our community. Both in theory and in practice, he has created a leadership must-read.
