Know-How
The 8 Skills That Separate People Who Perform from Those Who Don't
2 of 2 copies available
How often have you heard someone with a commanding presence deliver a bold vision that turned out to be nothing more than rhetoric and hot air? All too often we mistake the appearance of leadership for the real deal. Without a doubt, intelligence, vision, and the ability to communicate are important. But something big is missing: the know-how of running a business.
Know-How is the missing link of leadership. By showing how the eight know-hows link to, interact with, and reinforce personal and psychological traits, Ram Charan provides a holistic and innovative portrait of successful leaders of the twenty-first century.

The type of performance discussed in this lesson is that of a CEO or other high-level executive who has broad responsibility for a complex organization or group of business units. The skills discussed are organized into eight areas that Charan explains are critical for a business to be competitive and profitable. With crisp vignettes, the author fleshes out the thinking and behavioral strategies that work in each domain. His sweeping insights about the business and economic landscape and his descriptions of personality and emotional factors are priceless and far-reaching. Thanks to Morey's interpretive clarity and enthusiastic tone, an appealing narrative drive is created, keeping Charan's message alive and creating anticipation for what is to come. T.W.
