What the CEO Wants You to Know takes the mystery out of business and shows you the secrets of success Have you ever noticed that the business savvy of the world's best CEOs seems like a kind of street smarts? They sense where the opportunities are and how to take advantage of them. And their companies make money consistently, year after year. How different is it to run a big company than to sell fruit from a cart or run a small shop in a village? In essence, not very, according to Ram Charan. From his childhood in India, where he worked in his family's shoe shop, to his education at Harvard Business School and his daily work advising many of the world's best CEOs, Ram understands business as few can. The best CEOs have a knack for bringing the most complex business down to the fundamentals--the same fundamentals that are used to run the family shoe shop. And, they have business acumen--the ability to focus on the basics and make money for the company. What the CEO Wants You to Know captures these insights and explains in clear, simple language how to do what great CEOs do instinctively and persistently: * Understand the basic building blocks of a business and use them to figure out how your company makes money and operates as a total business. * Decide what to do, despite the clutter of day-to-day business and the complexity of the real world. Many people spend more than a hundred thousand dollars on an MBA without learning to pull these pieces of the puzzle together. Many others lack a formal business education and feel shut out from the executive suite. What the CEO Wants You to Know provides you with the universal laws of business success, no matter whether you are selling fruit from a stand or running a Fortune 500 company.

Charan does a great job summarizing the fundamentals of business into 4 building blocks: customers, cash generation, return on invested capital, and profitable growth. For a typical employee who has never stopped to think beyond his/her role, this is a great intro
However, beyond a rudimentary understanding of business, I'm not sure this is enough to change employee mindset or help them apply it in real life. Charan did include several chapters to talk about execution and real-world application, but I found those way too vague and theoretical to be truly useful.
So, this is probably a nice reference for anyone who's never really thought hard about their company or business in general. And since it's relatively small and easy to read, it's not intimidating at all to refer to employees. Just not convinced it will really change behaviors in the real world.
What it covers:
• The 4 fundamental building blocks for any business, regardless of the size, type or industry: customers, cash generation, return on invested capital, and growth;
• How to combine the 4 building blocks to see the full picture of how an organization is doing; and
• How to apply these insights in real life to cut through real-world complexities, generate wealth for shareholders, achieve superior execution, and expand the company’s capacity.
