Business success comes neither easily nor quickly. What is needed is a practical guide to achieving peak performance recognising your starting point and telling you what is required to achieve your goals.

By comparing the ways these leaders ran their businesses with their long-term performance, you will be able to see what works in practice and how to make it work for you.

The Complete CEO is not a conventional business book and recognises there are no shortcuts to greatness. Even great CEOs have important areas of relative weakness. The tailored model of high performance presented in this book will be of enormous value to anyone who aspires to be a high-performing CEO.

“The ultimate test of a CEO is value creation. Yet few are prepared for the task. This book will be of practical help to anyone who seriously takes up this challenge.” —Sir Brian Pitman, Former CEO And Chairman Of Lloyds TSB

“I believe that the High Performance Model described in this book will be of value to any business leader – but especially to one new in post, or one who has good reason to introduce change.” —Sten Scheibye, CEO Coloplast

“The High Performance Model at the core of the book, moves from a clear and insightful discussion of what drives the creation and maintenance of a winning business model into a decomposition of the role of the CEO. The authors have worked with a number of highly successful CEOs and former CEOs to understand the essence of their success, and the actions they have taken day-to-day to drive it; and the result is a practical, easy-to-understand guide.” —From The Foreword By Ben Verwaayen, CEO BT Plc

I sat down again to think. I remembered a piccolo, music that made me want to dance and sing, falling asleep - and then a dream. The dream was quite out of the ordinary. If Bobby hadn't left me on my own, I would have asked him if this was one of his 'Big Dreams.' He would have given me a knowing look and all but confirmed it with these words, 'You'll know if you've had a Big Dream, Avie. They're renowned for their revelatory nature. They won't fade away at dawn. Sometimes they never fade. Ever!'I didn't want my dream to fade away. I'd had a revelation of sorts. I was not on the hill last night. Somehow, I was somewhere else. Somewhere so enchanting it made the hill I woke up on seem less real than my dream. Avery Smith is an imaginative girl who likes to let her mind wander. She longs to return to the mystical place she visited on Midsummer's Eve. But the only one that could help her find it again is her new friend Bobby. No one knows who he really is though and Bobby can't remember his past. Sheela loses her job as a secretary only to discover she is a witch. She is attracted to Bobby and is curious to learn more about this mysterious youth who seems more comfortable with enchanted places than with his own heart. But what has his enchanted place got to do with Avery Smith? Or with secrets. Destiny. Danger. Written by Gary Miles. Cover illustration by Amanda Gazidas.
