{"product_id":"the-imperfect-ceo-9781637749029","title":"The Imperfect CEO","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn today's rapidly changing workplace, the old leadership playbook no longer works. Command-and-control has given way to collaboration and connection. Leaders are expected not just to direct - but to cultivate cultures that engage, align, and thrive. In the style of his previous bestselling book The Imperfect Board Member, Jim Brown returns with a powerful new narrative. Picking up the story of CEO David Slater - now twenty years further into his leadership journey - Brown reveals the real-world challenges of leading through complexity and change. This fable highlights what many leaders face in today's increasingly human workplace - where relationships, empathy, and trust matter as much as outcomes, even as technology reshapes how we work. It illustrates that a sustainable, high-performing organization is possible, and it begins with the evolution of leadership. Alongside David, readers discover practical ways to apply the Ascent Model, four essential indicators of a healthy organization that Brown's firm developed over three decades of advising boards and executive teams: Collaborative Culture; Leadership Accountability; Strategic Momentum; Talent Magnetism Blending story with strategy, The Imperfect CEO offers a proven path for CEOs, consultants, team leaders, and board members to elevate performance and transform culture. This isn't a book about perfection - it's about progress. Organizational health isn't an abstract ideal; it's a discipline. One you can learn, apply, and master - to shape the future of your team, your company, and your leadership legacy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jim Brown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56469846032726,"sku":"9781637749029","price":28.68,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0886\/3206\/6390\/files\/9781637749029.jpg?v=1793784392","url":"https:\/\/www.bookshop.lt\/products\/the-imperfect-ceo-9781637749029","provider":"Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
