Sinopsis

Outlining the requirements for management success in the Twenty-first century, the author proposes both a senior management career path to achieving top executive responsibilities and how the CEO successfully meets his or her challenges once that apex position is achieved. Over forty years of global management experience, including more than a decade as a Chief executive officer, underscores the dynamics of this book. It is intended for the aspiring individual who currently has some management experience, the ambition and dedicated focus to be a business leader, the self-confidence to be recognized, and to be comfortable with risk taking and to exercise "out of the box" thinking in accomplishing the vision they develop for their organization. It definitely is not for the faint of heart!The book covers all the dynamics of these objectives, including the importance of the family, effective time management, discipline in all of its meanings and the real relationships between the business leader, the Board of Directors, the executive team, shareholders, employees, the market, and the increasing influence of government actions and involvement.Simply put, the purpose of this book is to assist you in planning and executing your career path to advance from your current business responsibilities to those of senior executive leadership - to those of a Chief Executive Officer, Managing Director or similar level of responsibilities. Recognizing that times and business environments change, it is designed to meet the challenges of the 21st Century; challenges you will face as an executive.This book is based on the author’s personal business experiences covering 40 plus years. His senior management background included that of a CEO and President of a global heavy manufacturing, engineering and construction, and systems corporation. His business, military service and academic background proved to be of considerable value during the ups and downs of personal, corporate, and family life. It also provided him the basis for steadfast standards and values, affording an ethical barrier against the increasing prevaricating, cheating, obfuscating, thievery, and fraudulent global business and government events of the last 30 years or so.Unlike the questionable ethics and opportunistic management practices so evidenced by the Enrons, WorldComs, Tyco Internationals, MCIs, AIGs and, more recently, the Madoffs, Stanfords and Rothsteins of the world; the standards underwrote the strategic soundness of "being smart rather than clever" and trust implied in such policies as "Your Word is your Bond." This book is about the value and benefits of hard work, smartly done. It is about strengthening your self-confidence, flexibility and agility, and of realizing that you’ll never fully achieve your potential, but you’ll always - throughout your life - be striving for that goal. You are the person who never quits.You will find the premises of this book of considerable value. It is for the individual who "wants to make a difference," and who realizes that risks always are present in striving to achieve worthwhile goals.
