Description: In the tradition of bestsellers such as Don't Sweat the Small Stuff: P.S. It's All Small Stuff, Life's Little Instruction Book, Everything I Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten, and Audio Renaissance's own best-selling How to Work a Room comes How to Become CEO: The Rules for Rising to the Top of Any Organization. This e, @sential guide is for anyone who wants to become president or CEO of a corporation, buy a business, start a business, run their own business, or have a long and fruitful career in a large corporation.

The seventy-five "rules" outlined by Jeffrey J. Fox -- founder of a marketing consulting firm and an MBA graduate of Harvard Business School -- are actions readers must take, traits they must develop, and things they must avoid in order to succeed. Fox's short and simple one-lesson-per-topic approach is an intelligent, no-nonsense method of business instruction. His compelling workplace-tested advice includes:
-- arrive forty-five minutes early and
-- leave fifteen minutes late
-- never write a nasty memo
-- avoid superiors when you travel
-- always take vacations
-- overpay your people
-- keep physically fit
-- don't have a drink with the gang

This straightforward guide sets forth the qualities that every successful leader must have: vision, persistence, integrity, and respect for superiors, subordinates, and peers.
