As CEO, you set the tone for your organization. You establish priorities, anticipate and address challenges, champion and lead change efforts, set people up for success, and manage risk. You look at issues and trends to see how they'll affect your company internally, but also externally--in the larger context of your industry, your country, and your company's place in the global marketplace. You maintain a long-term view while simultaneously paying attention to short-term concerns. And though you may have a great senior executive team and a top-flight board, ultimately the responsibility rests on your shoulders.-- - Book News
Originally published in Harvard Business Review between 1995 and 2017, the 12 articles in this volume address aspects of leadership for CEOs, including strategy, managing innovation, leading change, business models, leadership as a conversation, strategic intent, dealing with common causes of growth stalls, strategy execution, focus, managing risks, spotting talent, and working with an active board.
