I’m Dick Cross.
Recently, Scott Shriber and the AMN editorial staff decided to take a risk. And because of it, I’ll be in front of you every other week. With about 350 words.
Not news. But with how to make news. Urging you to do a great job at the top of your organization. Because, no matter what you gather from the news, it’s what you do with it that counts.
A burning obsession will run through each installment: The single greatest determinant of business success is the Job At The Top … nothing else even comes close!
And why from me? Because I’ve been there. And learned how to do that job. Well. The hard way:
As CEO of eight “against the odds” turnarounds.
As an adviser to more than 100 CEO’s in refining their roles.
As the founder of the Mid-Tier Presidents Course at Harvard.
As the author of "Just Run It!" an Amazon.com best-selling new release in April.
And, as a keynote speaker, including the keynote at the 2012 NACE/CARS.
But most simply, because:
I care about how you do your job, and I want you to do it well.
I know these ideas work. And I know they make a difference for everyone who embraces them.
Every two weeks, I’ll give you “no holds barred” advice about what’s worked for me. Every time. In a conversational, story telling-style. With ideas that I hope you’ll find creeping into your own job, and into how you do it.
Along the way, let me know what you think … I’m a learner, too.
Sincerely yours,
Dick Cross
