Description
The Outsiders: Eight Unconventional CEOs and Their Radically Rational Blueprint for Success
By William Thorndike, Harvard Business Press, 2012
This book explores the success of eight CEOs who took a radically different approach to corporate management, achieving outstanding returns for their shareholders. The author, a successful investor, brings his analytical wisdom to evaluate the performance of these companies and their leaders, revealing the key to exceptional CEO performance.
Meet the eight individualistic CEOs whose firms' average returns outperformed the S&P 500 by a factor of twenty, making an investment of $10,000 with each of these CEOs, on average, worth over $1.5 million twenty-five years later.
