Features: Today's greatest management masters, Tom Peters, fully endorses this book. His In Search of Excellence is one of the greatest management works of the 20th century, hailed as the "Bible" of business management. He once wrote a book about CEO principles titled Big Shots, but he said, "There's a better one, and The Principles of Top CEOs is it." This book is a dialogue between The Wall Street Journal reporters and world-class CEOs. Facing The Wall Street Journal reporters, the world's top CEOs open up their hearts, reveal their secrets, and spill their closely guarded business management secrets. The reporters press hard, unrelentingly, right to the heart of the matter; the CEOs are open and unreserved, speaking freely, locked in debate. It's a clash of ideas, an exchange of perspectives. These CEOs come from various industries, and the topics cover all aspects of business operations. It's a treasure trove of thoughts, a distillation of experience, a summary and elevation of concepts. The CEOs not only frankly confess their successful experiences but also do not hide their lessons from mistakes and failures. Every sentence here sparkles with wisdom; every viewpoint has been tested by practice and time.
