Features: "CEO Says" offers such profound insights, explaining in concise language how to consciously and persistently achieve the following as great CEOs do: Understanding the basic elements of business activities, leveraging them to coordinate company operations and achieve profitability. Deciding on work goals rather than being overwhelmed by daily activities and the complexities of the real world. Many are willing to spend $100,000 to obtain an MBA degree but don’t know how to assemble those basic business elements like a puzzle. Others lack formal business education, making them feel that management positions are out of reach. "CEO Says" lifts the veil of mystery from business activities and reveals the success secrets of legendary figures like Jack Welch. The universal laws of business success—whether selling fruit on the street or managing a Fortune 500 company—must be followed. Have you noticed that the business acumen of top-tier CEOs seems no different from that of a street vendor? These CEOs can sense opportunities and leverage them, with their companies consistently profitable year after year. What’s the difference between running a large enterprise, selling fruit with a cart, or opening a small shop in the countryside? In the view of Dr. Ram Charan, there’s not much difference. He worked in his family’s shoe store in India from a young age, later attended Harvard Business School, and now makes a living by consulting the world’s best CEOs. Few understand the laws of business operations as well as he does. Excellent CEOs master the skill of breaking down complex businesses into basic elements, which are also the foundation for running a family shoe store. CEOs possess business acumen, focus on the essentials, and make money for the company.
