PRESIDENTIAL is an acronym which will reveal you the 12 key steps towards the next evolution of leadership adapted to the digital world of Generation Z-those born between 1995 and 2012 and who think that Facebook is a thing of the past. It is the perfect handbook-style companion to those who would like to transcend the current aging leadership techniques, and become more effective leaders, recognized as such by their employer, and most importantly, by their employees. After starting as a field engineer on an oilfield platform in Venezuela, Author St phane Nicolas Vignet refined a technique to always deliver better results than expected, and subsequently, became a celebrated division president of a Fortune 500 company. Vignet, who lived in eight different countries, worked in more than thirty and speaks five languages, was in charge of businesses worth billions of USD and teams of over 12,000 people. Now retired, Vignet shares his advice on how to attain a new level of leadership and a presidential status in a company.While the introduction details a harrowing near-death experience while surfing in Vietnam, Vignet's career journey is filled with on-the-job highs and lows, life-changing encounters with colleagues at every level, honest and forthcoming self-reflection, innovative team bonding and unexpected moments of vulnerability. It is easy to picture this talented engineer as a witty and charming gentleman who uses his talent as a people person to identify the core reasons behind workplace mishaps and challenges. He elevates team members and strives for goals some may call unrealistic. By exploring the oil and gas industry through a book on leadership, Vignet gets to share numerous engaging and suspenseful anecdotes. In fact, it is revealed that the author barely survived a behavioral disorder during childhood so severe, it took a major life decision-much like he asks future presidential leaders to emulate-to save his life. PRESIDENTIAL has all of the qualities to help the reader adopt the demeanor of a more effective leader and reach a top position in a global company. Thanks to Vignet's recollection of where his most productive time was spent and the lessons those memories provided, there is nothing the transformed leader cannot achieve as he simply becomes ... Presidential.
