Description
At the age of 14, Douglas Barry had a realization: instead of becoming a down-in-the-dirt archaeologist-his boyhood dream-he might be better off as the person who manages the archaeologists. So he decided to become a CEO. Not knowing where to begin, he sent letters to more than one hundred CEOs from top corporations asking them: "What does it take to become a CEO?" What followed was a stunning surprise, and in the end, an extraordinary inspiration. In Wisdom for a Young CEO, the most accomplished business and industry leaders in the world today share their candid thoughts and definitive advice on what it takes to reach their heights, and fill their shoes. Their compassionate, personal guidance-aimed directly at one determined teen-is truly universal. It is an inspiration to anyone, at any age and from any background, who has a dream and the desire to succeed. This amazing collection of personal letters and notes from the most influential and accomplished executives today-Sumner Redstone of Viacom, Betsy Holden of Kraft Foods North America, William Esrey of Sprint, Len Riggio of Barnes & Noble, Harvey Golub of American Express, and many more -provides an invaluable resource of real-life experience from those who've made it to the top. With sincerity, humility, humor, candor, purpose, encouragement, and delightful enthusiasm, more than 90 chief executives reveal their personal, proven secrets for success-in business and in life.
