The Next Level: What Insiders Know About Executive Success - 2nd Edition Scott Eblin
Description and Reviews From The Publisher: Forty percent of new executives don’t last 18 months. A new book from a top executive coach shares insider advice and shows how to increase the odds of success. A failed senior-level hire can cost a company up to $2.7 million. So why are organizations allowing nearly half of all new executives to fail? Perhaps they don’t realize that most new executives are set up to sink or swim—and that what it takes to succeed can be taught. This is the conviction of Scott Eblin, a DC-based executive coach. Eblin sat down for one-on-one interviews with some thirty executives from many of America’s leading organizations, including Avon, Capital One, Clear Channel, Northrop Grumman, and Sprint. In his new book, he shares these insiders’ personal stories, including how they stumbled—then succeeded—in their transition to the next level of leadership. A former Fortune 500 executive, Eblin lived and learned through his own lessons,too. His bottom-line message to new leaders: What got you there won’t keep you there. You must learn new beliefs and behaviors and, more importantly, let go of old ones—even though they’ve driven your success up until now. The basic tenet of Eblin’s been-there, done-that advice for achieving “executive presence”: Convey confidence, no matter how you feel inside. Insecure executives, he says, make lousy leaders. Eblin offers dozens more insights, ideas, and tips in The Next Level, including:
