CEO Tools 2.0, A System to Think, Manage, and Lead Like a CEO was released earlier this month. The famous tool box for CEO’s by Kraig Kramer’s has been brilliantly updated by Jim Canfield, an expert at identifying, simplifying, and communicating the tactics and strategies CEO’s rely on to make the best decisions possible. The book is filled with easy to understand charts, info graphs, and process maps that update, outline, and improve classic management principles. It includes several new tools backed up by thoughtful case studies that will give any CEO the edge in this competitive market. We are thrilled to have our business chosen for the final case study. This is a great handbook, tool box, and must read for any CEO interested in understanding and using the latest CEO Tools available. Highly recommended!
