It’s compact, well-written and wise, full of relevant examples
and mercifully free of H.R. mumbo jumbo -- The Washington Post,
August 10, 2003
內容簡介：
What is different about the careers of people like Lou Gerstner,
the acclaimed, recently retired chairman and CEO of IBM? Or Senator
Elizabeth Dole, Yahoo! COO Dan Rosensweig, and Tom Freston,
chairman and CEO of MTV Networks?
Why did they ascend to the top and prosper—why did they have
extraordinary careers—while others equally talented never reached
their potential or aspirations?
Jim Citrin and Rick Smith of Spencer Stuart, the world’s most
influential executive search firm, set out to explore this
question. The result—based on in-depth, original research—is sure
to be the most important and useful book for anyone seeking to
crack the code of how to build a rewarding, personally satisfying
career.
Like weather systems and financial markets, careers contain
patterns. What Citrin and Smith found from their research and
extensive experience is that people with extraordinary careers are
guided by five straightforward patterns that can be harnessed and
used by everyone. These individuals:
? Understand the value of you by translating their knowledge and
experience into action, building their personal value over each
phase of their career
? Practice benevolent leadership by not clawing their way to the
top but by being carried there
? Solve the permission paradox, the dilemma of not being able to
get a job without experience and not getting the experience without
the job
? Differentiate using the 2080 principle of performance by
storming past their defined jobs to create breakthrough ideas and
deliver unexpected impact
? Do not micromanage their careers, but macromanage them by
gravitating toward the things they are best at and have a passion
for, and working with people they like and respect
No one manages your career for you. But with Citrin and Smith as
your guide, you’ll be able to understand—and act on—the root causes
of success. And what better source for strategic career advice than
Spencer Stuart, the firm that over the past ten years has conducted
more than 60 percent of the searches for Fortune 1000
CEOs?
