Navigating the Ceo Jungle

With a combined sixty plus years of experience consulting chief executive officers of several companies, Jaime Rupert and Rob Doughty share their observations of the creatures a new CEO will encounter as they move into their new position. The authors see that CEOs are not placed on the top of a pyramid organizational chart. Rather, the CEO is at the heart of an ecosystem that resembles a spider web. Creatures range from the loyal Koala Falcon, the closest creature in the jungle to the CEO, to the Spider Chameleon Brigade of Human Resources to the Peacock Howlers of marketing, Black & White Worker Bees of operations and the Cash Cow customers. Written as a fable, Navigating the CEO Jungle is delightful, quick and entertaining read. It is a must read for the new CEO, as well as everyone who works in or with a company of any size.
