THE CEO'S PLAYBOOK - Leading from the Boardroom to the Breakroom
The CEO's Playbook is a practical field guide written by a seasoned CEO and board leader who has lived the role from both sides of the table. Structured as short, self-contained chapters ("plays"), the book distills decades of experience into clear principles CEOs can immediately apply, whether preparing for a board meeting tomorrow, navigating a talent decision, responding to crisis, or rebuilding trust inside the organization.
Genre(s): Nonfiction, Business, Management and Leadership
What separates a good CEO from a great one? It's rarely strategy. More often, it's judgment. It's knowing when to speak and when to stay silent, how to lead without micromanaging, and how to earn the trust of a board while staying connected to the people on the front line.
Whether you're in the corner office, working your way toward it, or sitting across the table in the boardroom, The CEO's Playbook distills decades of real-world leadership into ninety concise, candid chapters that cover every aspect of the role: the decisions, the dilemmas, and the moments that matter most.
