What Every CEO Must Know, 37 Secrets to Lead With Confidence and Power - Paperback

What's the #1 reason CEOs fail?

Blind spots they never saw coming.

Most CEOs don't fail because they lack intelligence or drive. They fail because they miss the warning signs. Blind spots erode trust, derail decisions, and sink companies.

What Every CEO Must Know, 37 Secrets to Lead with Confidence and Power, reveals the proven strategies, directly from over 20 real founder and first-time CEO stories, that every CEO needs to lead with confidence, clarity, and resilience.

Award-winning author, executive advisor, and leadership coach Bill Miller draws on more than three decades of experience guiding CEOs and founders through their toughest challenges. Through real-world stories and field-tested insights, Miller helps leaders see what others miss, build stronger teams, and make sharper decisions with courage and conviction.

Readers will learn how to:

- Spot and eliminate blind spots before they sabotage credibility and trust.

- Make faster, sharper decisions, even with incomplete data.

- Turn mistakes into momentum using proven recovery strategies.
