Leadership Resources
“I was tired of working hard and not getting the results I wanted. I needed guidance to grow smarter.”
Where CEOs Come To Learn
We believe CEOs should also be the Chief Learners of their organization.
Our members are constantly seeking new ideas, theories, and processes that can make them more effective leaders. That’s why we offer this expanding collection of leadership resources. Bookmark this page and check back often to learn about the latest trends in leadership.
We conducted in-depth interviews with more than 1,000 successful CEOs and found that exceptional CEOs accomplish more in less time. In fact, these leaders consistently outperformed average CEOs by a factor of 5x.
Great CEOs are Lazy
Our findings inspired our purpose, informed our methods, and are well-documented in the book Great CEOs are Lazy, written by CEO and founder Jim Schleckser.
