CEO Excellence

Autor Carolyn Dewar, Scott Keller, Vikram Malhotra
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 mar 2022

Diferența majoră între CEO Excellence și alte manuale de leadership rezidă în rigoarea statistică și accesul fără precedent la culisele puterii corporative globale. În timp ce majoritatea lucrărilor din domeniu se bazează pe intuiții sau studii de caz izolate, această lucrare semnată de Carolyn Dewar, Scott Keller și Vikram Malhotra distilează experiența a 67 de lideri de elită, selectați dintr-un grup de peste 2400. Recomandăm această carte ca pe o hartă strategică pentru cei care ocupă sau vizează cea mai solitară funcție dintr-o organizație. Considerăm că valoarea adăugată a textului stă în definirea celor șase mentalități esențiale care guvernează succesul: de la stabilirea viziunii și alinierea organizației, până la gestionarea consiliului de administrație și a propriului model de operare personal. Cititorul care a aplicat ideile din The CEO Test de Adam Bryant va găsi aici cadrul metodologic complet care transformă testele de reziliență în practici de excelență sustenabilă. Autorii nu se limitează la teorie, ci extrag lecții pragmatice din conversațiile cu Satya Nadella sau Jamie Dimon, oferind soluții pentru statistica îngrijorătoare conform căreia doi din cinci CEO eșuează în primele 18 luni. Această lucrare reprezintă punctul culminant al cercetărilor McKinsey, integrând temele de eficiență organizațională explorate anterior de Scott Keller în Beyond Performance 2.0. Este un instrument de calibrare pentru liderii care trebuie să livreze performanță într-un context în care miza se măsoară în miliarde de dolari și zeci de mii de locuri de muncă.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:

CEO EXCELLENCE, by McKinsey senior partners Carolyn Dewar, Scott Keller and Vikram Malhotra is a unique and timely business book which will draw on 25 years of research and interviews with top leaders of some of the world's most respected companies. The resulting book will demonstrate that while the role of CEO is unique within every organisation, it is surprisingly similar across companies even in disparate industries. Furthermore, the best CEOs approach their role with distinct mindsets and practices.

This book is about truly world class leadership, showing how the best CEOs think, adapt and approach challenges (never more relevant than in this extraordinary time). It will show why a brilliant CEO can have such an immense impact, and demonstrate how to model yourself and your performance on the very best - so that your turn to lead comes sooner, and is more successful.

Descriere scurtă

From the world's most influential management consulting firm, McKinsey & Company, an insight-packed, revelatory look at how the best CEOs do their jobs based on extensive interviews with today's most successful corporate leaders?including chiefs at Netflix, JPMorgan Chase, General Motors, and Sony.

Being a CEO at any of the world's largest companies is among the most challenging roles in business. Billions, and even trillions, are at stake?and the fates of tens of thousands of employees often hang in the balance. Yet, even when "can't miss" high-achievers win the top job, very few excel. Thirty percent of Fortune 500 CEOs last fewer than three years, and two out of five new CEOs are perceived to be failing within eighteen months.

For those who shoulder the burden of being the one on whom everyone counts, a manual for excellence is sorely needed.

To identify the 21st century's best CEOs, the authors of CEO Excellence started with a pool of over 2400 public company CEOs. Extensive screening distilled that group into an elite corps, sixty-seven of whom agreed to in-depth, multi-hour interviews. Among those sharing their views: Jamie Dimon (JPMorgan Chase), Satya Nadella (Microsoft), Reed Hastings (Netflix), Kazuo Hirai (Sony), Ken Chenault (American Express), Mary Barra (GM), and Peter Brabeck-Letmathe (Nestlé).

What came out of those frank, no-holds-barred conversations is a rich array of mindsets and actions that deliver outsized performance. Compelling, practical, and unprecedented in scope, CEO Excellence is a treasure trove of wisdom from today's most elite business leaders.
