13. Gazelles (Verne Harnish)
• Mice are the Startups, the entrepreneurial pursuits at the beginning of each company, where you are still developing your
culture and your strategy.
• Gazelles are what we intend to become, to Scale Up the business into a rapid growing environment where we have already
defined our culture and are following habits that lead to growth.
• Elephants are the already established companies, players that have been in the market for more than 20 years. For
example: General Electric, Google etc.
