The CEO Next Door, book Summary by Elena Botelho and Kim Powell
Hi, welcome to this podcast: Famous Book Lessons & Summaries
Today we will be looking at The CEO Next Door, book Summary by Elena Botelho and Kim Powell
CEOs are often portrayed as highly intelligent people who wear fancy suits and have a real knack for business. However, many of them neither hold a higher-education degree nor come from a wealthy background. In fact, corporate success often has little to do with book smarts
Authors Elina and Kim ran several extensive studies to pinpoint what is truly needed to become a leader of a successful company. These are skills that anyone can learn, and the steps to acquiring and implementing them are clearly outlined in this book
The key message in this book summary:
CEOs aren’t superhuman. In fact, they’re just regular people who’ve developed certain skills that allow them to climb ranks in the workplace. Being decisive, consistent, committed and reliable are all fundamental traits of a CEO. Having a well-planned system in place is also important, as is understanding stakeholders and being able to adapt to the future.
