Axene Health Partners, LLC founder publishes book on practical business principles. 

In late 2009, David V. Axene published “Clearing the Mud” which presents many of the principles he uses in the day to day management of Axene Health Partners and previous organizations he has been associated with.  Consistent with the sub-title of the book (“Simplifying the Complexities of Running a Business”), this is a short book, but provides many useful concepts.  The book provides useful information to start a business, manage an existing business, and/or improve a struggling business.  The book is available at Amazon.com. 

In addition to his traditional consulting activities, Mr. Axene helps organizations improve their operations using the principles described in this book.  He is a frequent speaker on these topics and is passionate about improving the effectiveness of organizations, no matter what business they are in.  

Axene Health Partners, LLC releases Health Reform Essay

Although perhaps controversial, David Axene wrote an essay on health care reform discussing several issues that have not been understood by much of the public.  Although not taking a specific stand on the proposed legislation in either the House or Senate,  it hopefully sheds some light on several of the key issues.  This was sent via fax to each Senator and Member of Congress.  It has been posted on multiple websites and will soon appear in at least one publication.
