Review

Reading this book was like reliving 25 years of my experience in hi-tech, all condensed into 85-pages. More than a trip down memory lane, it distills the hard-won lessons of what works and what doesn’t and provides practical advice for current and aspiring leaders. Highly recommended.
…….Paul Muller,   Host of Digital: Disrupter Podcast; Company Director, Denting the Universe and FOHP

Great read with clarity for a business leader.   This book provides insight for a new CEO to help figure out the right path and learn from someone who has seen it happen good and bad. 

The information is backed up by Bill’s real-world experience in watching these CEO’s operate.   I appreciated the eye-witness accounts of various decisions and the aftermath that followed. Easy to understand and re-read a section when consider a decision.  Good insight and advice for future leaders about to take the wheel.  Pay attention to Bill’s experience and knowledge.

Oh my, am I impressed! The quotes, the stories and the characterization of the Rookie types was exceptional. Bill Miller really did a great job characterizing these CEOs!
