Discipline in Business and Cash Management: Operating Rules for Firms That Last

By ALESSIO FACCIA

This book addresses a simple problem most founders avoid. Businesses fail less from bad ideas and more from weak discipline around cash, behaviour, and control.

Discipline in Business and Cash Management explains why growth, revenue, and profit offer false comfort when liquidity, timing, and fixed commitments remain unmanaged. The book treats cash as the governing constraint of survival and discipline as the operating system that protects it. No motivation. No success stories. No slogans. Only rules.

The focus stays practical and unsentimental. Cash flow logic over profit optics. Runway maths over ambition. Pricing floors over volume chasing. Hiring restraint over premature scale. Founder behaviour over market excuses. Each chapter shows how indiscipline enters quietly through exceptions, optimism, fatigue, and success, then accelerates failure long before numbers collapse.

The book introduces operating rules, early warning signals, cash freeze protocols, reset mechanisms, and a sixty day discipline framework designed for pressure periods. These tools exist for moments when judgement weakens and emotion overrides intention. Structure replaces hope. Rules replace debate.

This is not a growth book. It is a survival book. It speaks to founders, operators, and owners who prefer control over spectacle and endurance over speed. Firms that last do not avoid risk. They contain it mechanically.

Discipline in Business and Cash Management shows how.
