"How
to Act like a CEO"
D. A. Benton
(November 2000,
McGraw Hill)
.do
not mistakenly think the daily execution of the 10 rules is for
someone else closer to the CEO role than you. You have to act the
part long before you get there. "If you act like it, and 'feel
the part,' your chances dramatically increase of getting it,"
says Dennis Hoppe, President of Change Management Implementation, Inc.. "Clearly
the traits that make a CEO must be evident long before the selection.
Only those that exhibit theses traits will end up on the 'short-list'
anyway. So acting the part, without stepping on toes, and showing
the emotional makeup necessary for those select few will get you
on the list."
The late movie
director, Stanley Kubrick, was described by an assistant, "He
always acted as if he knew something you didn't know." And
sometimes you need to also.
So whether you
are a CEO or already on the "list," or want to get onto
the list, start incorporating the 10 actions described in this book
into your personal and professional life.
How to Act Like
a CEO will introduce you to a cross-section of some of the most
powerful and successful CEOs in the world. But every one of these
successful executives has used the same 10 rules in getting to the
top.
Debra Benton
lists these 10 rules for getting to the top and staying there. Debra
analyzes the leadership styles of such diverse individuals as Apple's
legendary Steven Jobs, President of Nabisco Foods, Top defense lawyer
Jerry Spence, and General Colin Powell.
I highly recommend
this book to all of my existing and potential Executive Coaching
and Mentoring clients, and to all aspiring to climb to the top.

How to Make a Six-Figure Income
D. A. Benton
"The feeling
of finally succeeding at what you set out to do is like no other
feeling you will ever experience," says Dennis Hoppe of Change Management Implementation, Inc..
Making six figures
does a lot for your self-esteem. It feels good to make a lot of
money. Regardless of your motivation for making six figures, when
you succeed you are pleased.
Money buys power
and influence in many circles but, more important, it gives you
personal power and freedom. Money and power feel good.
"You
must be driven to do something you love with a passion, get into
that field on the bottom, swallow your pride as you learn, and listen
and benefit from every mistake. An attitude of perseverance and
patience is an absolute necessity."

When you develop
and go after your niche, you will experience satisfaction unlike
any time in your adult life. "Every single day I have the feeling
'How can I possibly be this happy,'" says Dennis Hoppe, President
of Change Management Implementation, Inc.. But you have to get started to experience
that glee.
