Tampa, Fla., June 28, 2007 – Numara Software, Inc., a leader in service desk management solutions for IT professionals, today announced that David Weiss, president and CEO of Numara Software, and Mark Krieger, vice president of development, have been selected by the Inside the Minds editorial board to contribute to the recently released book, Inside the Minds: Growth Strategies for Software Companies, published by Aspatore Books (www.Aspatore.com).

David Weiss is the author of chapter four, “It’s the Solution, Not the Software!” followed by Mark Krieger’s’ “UniPress Software: Taking the Long View,” which is the seventh chapter of the book.

"It is an honor to be selected as one of the software authorities to contribute to this book," said David Weiss, President and CEO of Numara Software.  "My tenure in the software industry has taught me that many factors contribute to the success of a company, and I hope that by sharing my past experiences and the knowledge that I’ve gained, I can help readers to be more successful within their own businesses."

Inside the Minds: Growth Strategies for Software Companies features top business executives of leading software companies from across the nation, and provides a broad, yet comprehensive overview of the current state and future shape of the software industry. The various authors discuss the roles and inner workings of winning executive teams, methods for tracking growth, strategies for making technology available to the masses and the biggest risks companies face. The different niches and perspectives represented in this book provide readers with an inside perspective from some of the great innovative minds of today, as these experts explore in detail what it takes to secure long-term success in the ever-evolving software industry. 

In his chapter, David Weiss shares his perspective that a winning business model, and not just a winning product, should remain at the core of a company vision, and that a good company vision is needed to achieve success in the software industry. In chapter seven, Mark Krieger provides insight into his experiences in starting up UniPress Software, and the rationale for choosing a slower growth approach with less risk for developing the company. 

The Inside the Minds series is revolutionizing the business book market by publishing an unparalleled group of executives and providing an unprecedented introspective look into the leading minds of the business and legal world.  To purchase a copy of this book, or for more information on Inside the Minds, please visit www.Aspatore.com.
