Summary: Annotation Being a leader requires much more than just understanding how to run a business. Today's executive is under an extraordinary set of demands, coming from multiple stakeholders and as such requires an extraordinary set of habits, practices, and disciplines in order to be able to not only succeed, but thrive, at the top. In The Complete Executive, long-time executive coach Karen Wright introduces a unique 10-step system that takes all of these aspects of leadership development into account. Leaders not only need incredible physical energy and stamina, they need a support system, a philosophy, a plan, business acumen, a social network, and a brand and reputation that will ensure they achieve their vision. Backed by an assessment tool, giving each leader a personal "report card," this book provides aspiring leaders with a framework to address all aspects of leadership that translates to peak performance. Wright knows from experience that even when everything is going well for leaders, high achievers don't stop there, which is why The Complete Executive is designed as a resource to return to again and again for continuous improvement.
