Today, executive careers are more fluid than ever, and so is the executive job market. Ambitious leaders may have no problem closing a deal or hitting their numbers, but knowing how to take the next step, the big step, will prove more difficult. Landing a top job requires clarity about the distinct value aspiring leaders bring to the role they want. Yet the higher they rise, the harder it becomes to get honest opinions about their strengths and weaknesses.
In Show Up to Win, Kelly O. Kay and Jeff Sanders, partners at executive search and consulting firm Heidrick & Struggles, tap into a wealth of insights from real-life case studies and interviews to present this straight-talking book showing what the job search looks like for today’s senior-level candidates, what companies are looking for in candidates for their top jobs, and how candidates can identify and best position themselves to win the role they’ve defined.
