From the CEO's Perspective: Leadership In Their Own Words (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781940984278)

Nearly 60% of U.S. companies face a leadership talent shortage. As we face fast-changing technology, global competition and a multi-generational workforce, that shortage has frightening implications for today's organizations and America's future. Driven by her own passion for leadership, Teri Citterman was inspired to ask 20 top CEOs what they are doing to develop leaders in this unprecedented time. These leaders share their own stories and inspirations, identify the must-have leadership traits (and derailers) for the future and offer provocative and unconventional advice. As you read about leadership in their words, you'll be challenged to define your views on leadership and to take action. Learn from the best and you can't help but be a more thoughtful, deliberate and effective leader. Includes CEO's perspectives from: Alaska Airlines - Apptio - Ben Bridge Jewelers - Columbia Hospitality - Gravity Payments - GreenRubino - International Community Health Services - JP Morgan Chase - Maveron - NBC - KING 5 - Oki Golf - Project Bionic - Seattle Foundation - Seattle Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce - Seattle University -Special Olympics of Washington - Ste. Michelle Wine Estates -Tom Douglas Restaurants -University of Washington Medicine - Xtreme Consulting "Ever wish you could take a peek into the brains of some of today's top business leaders to find out what they really think and what distinguishes them from their peers? You've come to the right place. Surprising, insightful and powerful don't even begin to capture what Teri has assembled here." Bob Rosner, author of the Wall Street Journal bestseller The Boss's Survival Guide, Seattle, Washington "In a sea of too many leadership books, there are three reasons to read From the CEO's Perspective. First, author Teri Citterman is a phenomenal writer, and brings punch to the topic of leadership. Second, Teri lets a group of fantastic CEOs tell you their stories, so that you get direct insights from those who have been there and done that. Third, Teri brings her own unique experiences to the table, so that you get the additional perspective of a great writer, coach, and someone who is passionate about how we create more leaders in a world that needs them. I guarantee you that you will find at least one nugget of wisdom in this book that more than justifies your investment in reading it."
