Read the book. Know you want details. But believe me, do what the tape says. Now. Today. And succeed. It's not complicated.

Great Practical Advice

I had previously read this book -- in my opinion, some of the best practical success advice anywhere. I ordered the audio to review the concepts. The narrator is great -- just the right speed and an appropriate reading style for the material.

Good Book

This is a book I discovered a few years ago. When I can, I urge recent college grads to put it on their reading list. I just bought it for my nephew who graduated last year and started a management trainee position at a large rail company. There are several useful principles laid out in this book, but what appeals to me the most is the author's underlying theme (not explicitly articulated) that there must be a personal touch to what you do. This is refreshing, truthful, and a departure from the Machiavellian culture promoted by some books. This book shows you that you must connect with people if you want to move up and be successful. And it shows you positive and easy ways to do this. I would caveat that this book, like a lot of business titles, is oriented toward those in sales, so if you are not in sales (like me) you must either toss or modify some of these principles. I have all the principles in this book in a note in my blackberry so I can review them when I have a moment to reflect.

Short and straightforward

Practical action-driven steps to transform your life into a goal-setting, results-oriented business professional.

Great book!

This is a must read book for everyone in business! I wish I read it 10 years ago!

Short but some great points.

The reading is clear. Makes a lot of great points but some are clearly dated.

Perfect How to!

This Book is Direct and to the point! excellent, it tells you what to do and what not to do, what kinds of behaviors are and are not desirable and it doesn't talk for hours about examples and other peoples success wasting your time. it gets right to the meat and potatoes of the how to. Highly recommend it!

Must to hear!!!

Must to hear!!! Helpful and realistic. Need to be a part of an educational programs

Old and shallow

The book is old and is a bit shallow with few details. I recommend the book surrounded by idiots instead

Great empirical perspective

If you could sum up How to Become CEO in three words, what would they be?

Direct, applicable, rational

Any additional comments?

Great recommendations from Jeffrey J. Fox, all are common sense; some you already know, some you might have forgotten and some you would not know; though Jeffrey present all these recommendations in a direct, summarized, and well-explained manner. And available here to remind you, plan for it, apply them and repeat them over and over in you work and every day life.

Becoming a CEO is each of the readers/listeners responsibility, but this book is a great starting plan of action (if you put it in action) to shift your career in a brand new direction, at the very least.

Kudos to everyone that put Jeffrey J. Fox's words into action; and to him for sharing knowledge properly.
