The Transformative CEO defines a new category of leadership, according to co-author Robert Reiss. “Transformative CEOs create new value that reinvigorates a company, reinvents an industry or reboots society.” The book is filled with direct quotes, stories from 44 CEOs and founders, and tools for succeeding in business, including: “Obstacles are opportunities”, “Have a higher purpose”, “Give back”, “Put culture first and forever”, “Lead with love”, and “Leadership is not a friendship contest.”

Ridgefield, CT, July 28, 2012 --(PR.com)-- The Transformative CEO defines a new category of leadership. According to co-author Robert Reiss, “Transformative CEOs create new value that reinvigorates a company, reinvents an industry or reboots society.” This travel-sized book is filled with direct quotes and stories from 44 CEOs and founders on practical yet often counter-intuitive tools which define a new way of succeeding in business, including: “Obstacles are opportunities”, “Have a higher purpose”, “Give back”, “Put culture first and forever”, “Lead with love”, and “Leadership is not a friendship contest.”

Co-author Jeff Fox talks about the book’s personal format, “How often do you get the chance to have super-high-performing CEOs talk directly to you? To tell you how they think, how they decide, their management principles?” The CEOs include leaders of: 1800flowers.com, Aflac, BET, Build-a-Bear, Campbell Soup, Cirque du Soleil, Danaher, Eggland’s Best, IDG, General Mills, Home Depot, Kaiser Permanente, McDonald’s, UPS, Waste Management, Zappos.

In explaining this new leadership category Robert Reiss shares, “The Transformative CEO is the 4th wave of the corporation. The 1st wave was in the 1920s where Alfred Sloan from General Motors established the concept of organizational structure; the 2nd wave was in the 1950s when Peter Drucker codified the role of management; the 3rd wave was in the 1980s when Japanese business brought forth the concept of team; and now the 4th wave is a new type of company which links profit with purpose. And more often than not, those companies become transformative by a Transformative CEO.”
