With more than 100 years of combined professional experience and a commitment to meeting the distinct needs of the marketplace, the executive team at J. Ross Publishing is redefining how business books and multi-media products are published. Instead of traditional corporate structures and operational roadblocks that impede innovation and delay publication, we are committed to bringing quality products to market faster and at the time of greatest demand. We recognize that the needs of the business community are highly competitive and time sensitive; thus, we view publishing as an all-inclusive system where the needs of the market, quality information, and speed to market intersect.

Although bringing quality information to the market quickly and at reasonable prices is important, it is not always enough. At J. Ross, we believe our customers expect more from the books they buy. In order to keep up with today's highly competitive business environment, professionals need practical, hands-on solutions that solve real-world problems. The goal at J. Ross is to meet these expectations by creating new and innovative ways to add value to the learning experience.

Traditionally, business books have been static—that is, there is no interaction or dialogue and learning is difficult and hard to measure. At J. Ross, we plan to change that. Our objective is to maximize the use of technology by providing online services and interactive tools that accompany our publications. This will improve reading comprehension and give our customers a more complete learning experience—essential in today's highly competitive and need-to-know right now business climate.

Our vision of the future is firmly grounded in the success of the past. The entire executive team at J. Ross has a proven track record of entrepreneurial achievement in the publishing industry. They have worked together in the past setting innovative standards for getting quality products to market faster and have a reputation for being responsive to their authors and customers. Today, Dennis Buda, President and CEO, and the entire staff at J. Ross continue this commitment.

At J. Ross, when we say we value our authors, we mean it. The company is named in honor of Joel E. Ross, Ph.D., distinguished professor emeritus of management, internationally recognized consultant, and author of numerous successful business books. He wrote two best-selling books for St. Lucie Press, founded by the current owners of J. Ross Publishing. Each book went on to generate more than a million dollars in sales—which was integral to the initial success of the company. Currently, Dr. Ross is part of our editorial advisory committee, where his input is invaluable.
