How dare you manage? These words are often on the tip of Nick Forrest's tongue as he consults for CEOs and other senior managers. Why? Because rare is the CEO who has been taught to manage large groups of employees -- indeed, to be accountable for everything, for the entire organization. 

Now, in this new book, Forrest explores the seven CEO management principles by which CEOs can energize all of their employees to achieve high levels of productivity and outstanding results.

The principles are:

  • Create your strategy
  • Choose your organization's functional structure
  • Level the organization
  • Define the work
  • Manage your lateral relationships
  • Build the required talent
  • Make it all happen with effective management practices
