Description

The CEO Next Door: What It Takes to Get to the Top and Succeed. Contrary to popular belief, becoming a CEO is not solely the domain of elite college or business school graduates. In fact, only 7 percent of CEOs today attended top schools, while 8 percent didn't graduate from college at all. This book draws on the biggest dataset of CEOs in the world, featuring in-depth analysis of 2,600 leaders and 13,000 hours of interviews. It challenges common myths about what it takes to succeed at the highest level, revealing instead that actual CEOs think and behave in certain ways. The book provides valuable insights into the traits and characteristics that can help you achieve your ambitions and take your career to the top, despite facing five to seven career setbacks along the way. By examining the experiences of real CEOs from top companies, this book offers a fresh perspective on what it really takes to get ahead in business.
