This book was great! I wish I had read it a year ago!

Sharon needs to write a sequel, Road to the Non-Profit CEO. I was part of a search committee for a non-profit organization looking for a CEO. If I had read Sharon Voros's book last year it would have made my Job much easier. Her writing is clear and gets right to heart of the recruitment process. Leadership is an intangible that is not very easy to find right away in a candidate. Sharon articulates the characteristics of leadership and gives examples. This is a must read for members of search committees.
A great resource for your personal road trip

Getting Ahead: What You MUST Know
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
An excellent book that reveals what companies, and search firms, know makes a good leader. Whatever your field or your level, you can learn how to turn your strong points into an advantage -- and you may even learn more about what your strong points are. Although talking about CEOs, it is also helpful for people just starting out who may not know, for example, that corporate culture can affect your performance, or may not even have known it exists.The book is easy to read, and is enlivened by case histories and quotations. The people speaking, and the author herself, know the search industry -- their personal success depends on finding the right person for the right job. This gives the book considerable credibility.
So this is how you become an executive!

As someone just about to enter the full-time workforce, I was surprised to learn how important intangible qualities like how you look and how you talk are to career success. Guess I better ditch those felt tip pens and cut off my beard.
Great information that's fun to read and easy to put to work

"The Road to CEO" shows how you can beat headhunters at their own game. I really liked the short quiz for calculating your leadership presence and tactics for looking like a leader. This book is fun, practical and easy to read--light years away from the run-of-the-mill business how-to.
