Overview
A hands-on guide for building leadership teams and cultures that ignite business transformation.
In The Catalyst CEO: Why CEOs Can’t Lead Transformation Alone—And What the Best Do Instead, veteran leadership advisor Constantine Alexandrakis delivers an insider’s guide to leading systemic change across complex organizations.
