Books by Felix Lenhard
Two book series. One for founders building businesses. One for performers mastering their craft. Both built on the same principle: subtract until only the essential remains.
Launching June 2, 2026
You started late. Everyone else has been doing this for years. The traditional advice is: start young, practice for decades, hope for the best.
This book says: that advice is wrong. Late to the Table is a systematic methodology for adult learners who want to master performance magic without wasting years on outdated practice methods. It draws on cognitive science, deliberate practice research, and performance psychology to build a framework that actually accelerates skill acquisition.
Two volumes. 77 chapters. Based on 32 foundational source texts and years of real-world practice.
The foundations. How to structure your practice, choose material that fits your personality, build a working repertoire, and develop the presentation skills that separate hobbyists from performers.
Advanced methods. Performance psychology, audience management, show construction, attention science, and the creative frameworks for developing original material.
You have limited time, high standards, and zero interest in "just pick a trick and practice it." This gives you a system instead.
Grounded in deliberate practice research, cognitive psychology, and performance studies. Not opinions. Frameworks backed by evidence.
Every chapter ends with something you can do today. Practice templates, self-assessment tools, and progression frameworks you can use immediately.
Release shows: Graz, June 5 & Vienna, June 7, 2026

Most business books tell you to do more. More features. More channels. More hustle. This one tells you the opposite: the fastest way to build something real is to subtract everything that doesn't matter.
Subtract to Ship is a four-book methodology for founders who want to go from idea to revenue without drowning in complexity. Each book covers one phase. Each phase has specific frameworks, tools, and decision points. No fluff. No motivational filler. Just the operating system behind 20+ years of building products, companies, and startup ecosystems.
How to find, test, and validate a business idea before you spend a euro. The frameworks for knowing whether your idea has real demand or just feels exciting in your head.
How to ship the minimum viable experience your first customers actually want. Build vs. buy decisions, pricing courage, sales pages, and the systems that let you ship without burning out.
How to generate predictable revenue without becoming your business's only salesperson. Content engines, lead generation, email sequences, pricing psychology, and word-of-mouth systems.
How to build a business that doesn't need you. SOPs, hiring, financial dashboards, recurring revenue, and the decision framework for stay small, grow, or sell.
Who These Books Are For
First-time founders who need a clear path from idea to first paying customer.
Growing founders who are stuck between EUR 5K and EUR 50K/month and can't figure out what to focus on.
Magicians and performers who want a systematic approach to mastering their craft.
Anyone who's tired of business books that inspire but don't instruct. These books give you the tools, not the motivation.
