PREPARING CEOs FOR SUCCESS! Here are the true experts on becoming a successful CEO-the men and women who have actually done it! Here, in their own voices, more than two-dozen CEOs from top global companies tell you "What I Wish I Knew" prior to taking the top job. They reveal what future CEOs-and leaders at all levels-need to do to prepare for and navigate tomorrow's leadership challenges. The book is divided into three key sections - "What We Discovered" includes the 8 key themes that CEOs told us they were not prepared for, and wish they had known more about: transitioning, decision-making, public scrutiny, working with their Board of Directors, and more. "The CEO Prerequisites" includes 6 key personal qualities, 9 specific career experiences, and 9 tested management practices that they rely on most heavily every day. "The CEO Handbook" is your personal guide for the most critical aspects of being a CEO. It overflows with anecdotes and advice on leading your new team, combating isolation on the job, managing work-life balance and more.
