Secrets to find success in the executive job market revealed for the very first time! After the success of his first book Super Secrets of the Successful Jobseeker (over 55 'five-star' reviews on Amazon), former professional recruiter, job market strategist and Career Codex founder Simon Gray returns with specific advice for senior executives. Having worked with senior executive clients from across the world on a private 1-1 basis, for the first time he reveals publicly what it really takes to stand out in the executive job market. Whether you're a CEO in the USA and looking for a job locally or a CFO in the UK and looking to further your career internationally, this book will show you the way. Wherever you are based and no matter what your discipline or industry sector, the strategies and techniques outlined in this book will put you ahead of the competition to find and secure the executive position you deserve.

Packed with real-life anecdotes, this book will challenge your beliefs, empower your thinking and give you a completely different approach to other senior executives competing for the job you want. It will make you stand out from the crowd and enable you to open doors you never knew existed or previously found closed.

Are you “leadership material?” More importantly, do others perceive you to be? Sylvia Ann Hewlett, a noted expert on workplace power and influence, shows you how to identify and embody the Executive Presence (EP) that you need to succeed. You can have the experience and qualifications of a leader, but without executive presence, you won't advance. EP is an amalgam of qualities that true leaders exude, a presence that telegraphs you're in charge or deserve to be. Articulating those qualities isn't easy, however. Based on a nationwide survey of college graduates working across a range of sectors and occupations, Sylvia Hewlett and the Center for Talent Innovation discovered that EP is a dynamic, cohesive mix of appearance, communication, and gravitas. While these elements are not equal, to have true EP, you must know how to use all of them to your advantage. Filled with eye-opening insights, analysis, and practical advice for both men and women, mixed with illustrative examples from executives learning to use the EP, Executive Presence will help you make the leap from working like an executive to feeling like an executive.

The measure of the executive, Peter Drucker reminds us, is the ability to 'get the right things done'. Usually this involves doing what other people have overlooked, as well as avoiding what is unproductive. He identifies five talents as essential to effectiveness, and these can be learned; in fact, they must be learned just as scales must be mastered by every piano student regardless of his natural gifts. Intelligence, imagination and knowledge may all be wasted in an executive job without the acquired habits of mind that convert these into results. One of the talents is the management of time. Another is choosing what to contribute to the particular organization. A third is knowing where and how to apply your strength to best effect. Fourth is setting up the right priorities. And all of them must be knitted together by effective decision-making. How these can be developed forms the main body of the book. The author ranges widely through the annals of business and government to demonstrate the distinctive skill of the executive. He turns familiar experience upside down to see it in new perspective. The book is full of surprises, with its fresh insights into old and seemingly trite situations.
