From Mba to Ceo: the Job of the Ceo and How You Get It Waldemar Schmidt 1st edition

From MBA to CEO is a very special career book because the author is a practitioner: Waldemar Schmidt, who has been CEO of a very large global group, chairman of several global companies and a noted lecturer on business education.
The single most frequent question that MBA students raised to the author during his numerous lectures was "How do I become a CEO?". Not alone does From MBA to CEO answer this question. It also addresses a wide range of career issues that MBA students from ten of the world's leading business schools raised in a research project conducted by the author. And it tackles matters that students have not yet realised might affect them.
From MBA to CEO is a unique and tailor-made career guide for MBA graduates and other men and women with CEO dreams. The book gives insights into the job of the CEO, it helps readers assess whether they have what it takes to become a CEO, what they must endure and achieve and how to progress all the way to the top. "How to work with search firms" is a very special chapter that gives readers invaluable advice that could have significant influence on their careers.
