Summary: Exceptionally well organized for how Executives need info!
Comment: The information architecture of this exceptionally useful guide exemplify the publisher's respect of the material. The guide is resourceful and easy to use. This is not, as one reviewer suggests, a poor book to be compared to "7Habits". The Successful Executive;s Handbook will be a welcome resource addition to any person responsible for the culture, health and profitability of their organization. My copy is dog-eared and comfortingly close to my desk.

Summary: Overpriced and Boring
Comment: Incredibly boring book which is way overpriced. I learned absolutely nothing from this book. I found that other books I bought like the "7 habits of highly effective people" and "one minute manager" were far more practical and interesting for executives. The book "Rich Dad Poor Dad" explained how to become a millionair, and was written by a millionair, but this book about how to become a successful executive is by a complete unknown...if she's so brilliant at being an executive why isn't she running General Motors or Maytag or General Electric, etc.?

Summary: The Successful Manager's Handbook for Executives.
Comment: Susan Gebelein and the contributors at Personnel Decisions have taken the ever-useful Successful Manager's Handbook and raised the bar for executives. This book does a good job of addressing the often vague, nebulous, and "fuzzy" skills and behaviors that make senior executives successful.
The book is truly written for leaders who are responsible for the strategy, health, and market performance of their organizations, and offers specific development suggestions and advice, as well as references to a good selection of supporting material.
I would recommend using this book as 1) a reminder of things that you should not forget to do in an executive role, and 2) a resource for specific advice on how to do better.
It makes a good companion (and word of sensible, research-based advice) to the popular books on executive leadership. I find the research-based recommendations written well and concisely--an advantage for execs who are always pressed for time.
