"A must read for all leaders, not just CEOs. Take it from someone whohas been tempted. Better than a personal coach." (Boyd Clark, president and CEO, The Tom Peters Group)
"Pat Lencioni delivers a provocative message: CEOs mainly havethemselves to blame when things go wrong. If you′re a CEO (or any manager for that matter), do you have the courage to face the blame? Doing so could change your future–for the better." (Dr. Jerry Porras, co–author, Built To Last; professor, Stanford School of Business)

"This book provides extraordinary insight into the pitfalls that leadersface when they lose sight of the true measure of success–results. Thismodel is required reading for my staff." (Dr. Eric Schmidt, chairman and CEO, Novell Corporation)

"This book provides extraordinary insight into the pitfalls that leaders face when they lose sight of the true measure of success: results. This model is required reading for my staff."
—Eric Schmidt, chairman of the board and CEO, Novell
Any executive can learn how to:
- recognize the mistakes that leaders can make
- avoid errors before they occur
- and much more!
Refreshingly original and utterly compelling, the story of this executive (written to be read in one sitting) will be enjoyed, remembered, and reread for years to come. It serves a timeless and potent reminder that success as a leader can come down to practicing a few simple behaviors—behaviors that are painfully difficult for each of us to master.
"Lencioni delivers a provocative message: CEOs mainly have themselves to blame when things go wrong. If you′re a CEO (or any manager for that matter), do you have the courage to face the blame? Doing so could change your future–for the better."
—Dr. Jerry Porras, coauthor, Built to Last; professor, Stanford School of Business
You won′t find any dry management rhetoric in this razor–sharp novelette. Apply these riveting lessons in leadership with the self–assessment at the end of the book. It will change your career!
