Subtitle: And Other Wisdom for Aspiring Leaders

Author: Bob Seelert

Narrator: Dennis Holland

Format: Unabridged

Length: 5 hrs and 16 mins

Release date: 10-09-09

Publisher: Audible Studios

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 8 votes

Genres: Business, Leadership

Publisher's Summary:

This collection of 94 real-life stories from Seelert's 40-year career as CEO of five companies in three different industries reveals transformative insights and practical instruction for anyone who wants to succeed as an executive, business leader, or entrepreneur.

In this highly readable and down-to-earth book, Seelert outlines his strategies, practices, and principle-centered approach to decision-making and problem-solving. Even more important, he shares the wisdom he has gained through exposure to extraordinary people, events, and institutions.

Based on his long and successful career, Seelert boils it all down to the eight dimensions of business life every leader must master in order to succeed - preparation, building and managing a career, business strategy, business operations, finance and economics, leadership, culture and communication, and personal spirit and style.

As he explores these eight dimensions in detail, Seelert provides a wealth of experience-based tactics, principles, and ideas for overcoming all the basic challenges of the modern business world. With both the philosophy and the nuts and bolts of great leadership, Start with the Answer provides critical insight any aspiring leader can use to succeed in any industry.

But you'll find much more here than just business fundamentals, including a philosophical foundation for high-quality leadership in the modern business world.

Start with the Answer argues that leaders must first come to know themselves, and then develop the values, beliefs, and principles they will carry through their careers in order to earn the trust of those they lead.

Reasonable business read. Another perspective on career organization.

Any additional comments?

Thought the author should have credited Woody Hayes as a co-author. The author didn't seem to have many of his own pithy statements .

Better audio's on the market

This audio does not really go beyond Wikinomics and The Wisdom of Crowds as the book description says it will. I would recommend those books and skip this one.

With Steltenpohl guiding the transformation, Odwalla turned itself around and is currently back at 85 percent of pre-recall sales. Steltenpohl speaks candidly about the strategy necessary to surviving crisis, the impact of current litigation on the company, and Odwalla's mission to rebuild brand equity. This program is part of the Stanford CEO Forum series, in which top business leaders discuss a variety of industry topics from managing change to moving your company into the next generation of technology.
