I sometimes ask my oldest son just what did he learn at Wharton School studying for his MBA? Not much as far as he can tell me.

This book should be required reading for anyone who aspires or already is a CEO. Jaques wisdom in this book is worth two years of graduate business study. It should also inspire the reader to read his other works.

Perhaps you have wondered where GE found its storied organization and leadership development system. Well, wonder no more. It is all based on Jaques work over the past 60 years.

So, why is Jaques such a secret? Because companies using his theories in practice consider it a competitive advantage.

If you want to destroy and demolish your company -- then you should avoid this book. Otherwise, if you actually care about your people, profits to go up, and a better and more effective business -- here is your beginner's guide to success.
