This remarkably brief book delivers tons of truth about existing, surviving, moving up, achieving leadership, delivering results, reaping rewards ...ultimately finding self-perspective and satisfaction in the world of Senior Management. Only rarely in any decade does a book capture, and bring new insights to, an infinitely broad subject in just a few words. This one does, because it's derived from a wealth of first-hand observation. For over thirty years, John Lucht has been recruiting senior executives from CEO on down, first for six years at Heidrick and Struggles, America's second-largest search firm, and for the past 24 years in his own practice which, for the past ten years, has also included outplacement and executive coaching at the highest levels of management. For ten earlier years he, too, was an executive on the fast track ...acutely aware of the cultural and performance issues that determine progress, rewards, and -- ultimately -- personal satisfaction among executives.
