Leadership lessons from icons of industry that will help you achieve breakthrough success

What the Best CEOs Know looks at the careers of this generation's top CEOs, and turns the wisdom, strategies, and tactics of these business-world icons into a step-by-step handbook for the pursuit and achievement of breakthrough corporate leadership--at any level, in any industry. Going beyond anecdotes and quotes to introduce proven methods to help you become a better leader, bestselling business author Jeffrey Krames uses cases, self-assessments, and concise summaries to provide a blueprint-like framework for success.

"Helps you apply the lessons gleaned from these masters." --Forbes

"Strategic lessons for anyone who is in upper management -- or wants to get there."--San Francisco Chronicle

But most of all, he presents a provocative, engaging read that will stretch the thinking of any practicing manager."--Christopher Bartlett, Thomas D. Casserly, Jr. Professor of Business Administration, Harvard Graduate School of Business

"By capturing the unique traits and strategies of these seven leaders, Krames gives aspiring CEOs a valuable blueprint for success in an increasingly tough global market."--Klaus Kleinfeld, President & CEO, Siemens Corporation
