Descripción editorial
The best-selling business leader offers a fresh and compelling path to success based on extensive research and candid interviews with some of the greatest winners of our time.
In James Citrin's new paradigm-shifting book, he identifies the essential characteristics and disciplines that have led many of our outstanding athletes and other extraordinary performers to achieve equally significant accomplishments in their respective business careers. Citrin uses dozens of compelling interviews with personalities as varied and impressive as Colin Powell, Tony Hawk, Billie Jean King, Magic Johnson, Mia Hamm, and Buzz Aldrin, to name a few, to illustrate a new personal achievement program called the Dynamic Path—a plan that any businessperson can put to immediate use. Citrin identifies three stages on this path to greatness:
• the Champion—combine the work ethic of Tiger Woods with self-confidence and mental toughness to reach the top
• the Great Leader—follow Bob Iger's revitalization of Disney as one of our best brands
• the Legacy—learn the ultimate lesson in good and lasting work from Lance Armstrong
With inspiring anecdotes, real-world business examples, and his trademark penetrating insight into what it takes to get ahead, Citrin once again provides a clear and concise roadmap for personal excellence.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Critin, columnist for Yahoo! Finance and senior director for Spencer Stuart, an executive recruitment and leadership consulting firm, guides readers toward reaching their ultimate potential along the path to professional and personal success. Exploring the qualities that create star performers in both business and sports, he examines what it takes to achieve greatness, the building block behavior that forms it and how these behaviors can be learned. His "Dynamic Path" leads from individual achievement through group leadership to leaving a collective legacy, inspired along the way by "Dynamic Moments," when change becomes essential. Critin recounts lively anecdotes about notable figures including Jeffrey Immelt, Terry Bradshaw, Howard Schultz, Colin Powell and others, distilling the principles of the "Path": grow or perish, build on experiences and accomplishments, focus on the success of others, play to your strengths and interests, and find a worthy and relevant cause. While Critin's stories sometimes overshadow the practical side of his lessons, there is much of value.
