CEO Excellence: The Six Mindsets That Distinguish the Best Leaders from the Rest -- Carolyn Dewar, Hardcover
New York Times Bestseller - Wall Street Journal Bestseller From McKinsey & Company, the world's most influential management consulting firm, comes CEO Excellence, an insight-packed leadership book that reveals how the best CEOs think and act--based on interviews with elite leaders from Netflix, JPMorgan Chase, General Motors, Sony, and more. Being a CEO at a major company is one of the toughest executive roles--Fortune?500 CEOs often face massive stakes, yet many fail early: 30% don't last three years, and 40% are deemed ineffective within eighteen months. What separates successful CEOs from the rest? The authors began with over 2,400 public-company CEOs, narrowed to an elite sixty-seven who participated in multi-hour interviews. Among them: Jamie Dimon (JPMorgan Chase), Satya Nadella (Microsoft), Reed Hastings (Netflix), Kazuo Hirai (Sony), Ken Chenault (American Express), Mary Barra (GM), Peter Brabeck-Letmathe (Nestlé), and others--offering rich insight into CEO best practices, leadership strategy, and business execution. Their candid conversations and McKinsey's data reveal how the top CEOs use core mindsets and signature practices--across strategy, culture, talent, stakeholder engagement, board relations, and personal effectiveness--to deliver extraordinary results. Practical, unprecedented in scope, and essential for leaders at every level, CEO Excellence is a management manual grounded in real-world CEO experience and leadership innovation.
