In CEO Tools: the Nuts-n-Bolts of Business for Every Manager's Success, Kraig Kramers, a veteran CEO, lays out the tools he used to make his various organizations rise to success. The book includes financial, communication and organizational models. These tools are neatly introduced in “How to” form and can be equally useful for managers, executives and CEOs alike. The book also comes with a CD containing many of the models discussed in the book in useable formats.
If you are number-phobic this book will challenge you (but that ain’t so bad, is it?). But, the book is much more than numbers. The tools can be though of as a heart rate monitor for your company. On top of the tools, the acronyms are titillating. My favorites are 12MMA, CoCal, T12M and MST. YES! You will have to read the book to get the scoop on these gems.
I wish I had read this book ten years ago. This book should be bundled with “Good to Great” by Jim Collins. The combination of these books should be mandatory reading for every CEO and those that aspire to be the Big Kahuna.
