Promote Yourself to CEO: Upgrade your management style to take your company where you want to go.

The more your company grows, the harder it can be to grow yet further. Why? Because the management practices and habits that worked when your company was smaller are no longer adequate.

You might be the main bottleneck. You may not be "presidential" enough in your management style. You must "promote yourself to CEO"-that is, focus on executive responsibilities and be less of a floor manager and worker.

Easier said than done While you are trying to keep your focus on the entire forest, many things conspire to keep you stuck in the trees and underbrush.

The exercises in this book will help you upgrade your management style, management practices and management structure-for yourself and for your key people-so that you can take your company where you want it to go.
