Your track record isn't enough. Here's what it really takes to be CEO Ready.

You're on the short list for the CEO job and you have a record of delivering amazing results. You've been told you have the inside track. You're the leader in the clubhouse.

Don't believe it. Remember that no matter what you've heard or what your CV says, you are not alone in the race, and the odds are against you getting the job.

Leadership selection isn't the methodical, objective process we imagine. Decisions aren't made by robotic executives ticking boxes for attributes like strategic fit, core competencies, or cultural alignment. Instead, the process is deeply personal, emotional, and often unpredictable. If you think it's purely merit-based, you're not CEO ready.

But don't worry, Mark Thompson and Byron Loflin have coached thousands of candidates through the process and have seen it all—they know what it takes to become truly CEO ready and they're sharing it here. They've witnessed the personal drama that unfolds as a company prepares to pass the baton of leadership, as well as the emotions that sway final CEO decisions. In CEO Ready, they reveal what it really takes to secure the top job.
