Reviews

[Helen Edwards · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book should be mandatory reading for anyone on an upward path in an organization. I was impressed by the rating system that was backed-up by actual examples of different types of leadership. I appreciated the insight of the author who used examples from his long career in business. Anyone who aspires to be a first-time CEO should study the different examples and take the best attributes from those that fit their personality. I was very impressed with the insight into management styles, some of which I have encountered in my personal business dealings.
I also enjoyed the amusing stories which made the points easier to understand.

Advise For the Future CEO

The Rookie CEO, is full of life advise that other like you have went through. A key not to take away from the book is - be a leader people want to follow!

[Chris Harris · Rating 4 out of 5]

Didn't connect, it has some good points, but the writing style just didn't connect with me.

[Matthew Payne · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great, quick read.

Punchy and entertaining, The Rookie CEO is well worth the time and effort. I highly recommend it for anyone with their sights set on the C-suite.

[Miguel Seabra Melo · Rating 3 out of 5]

More of a 3.5 stars. Interesting enough description of 9 different rookie CEOs, but the editing of three book is puzzling, slicing the presentation asking 4 dimensions rather than by CEO. Makes for needlessly confusing reading.
