PRAISE FOR HIDDEN TRUTHS
"A must-read for new and aspiring CEOs who want to minimize pitfalls and maximize their impact. David Fubini leverages his 35+ years of experience working with CEOs to bring us concrete, real life, very practical, and insightful advice."
-HUBERT JOLY, former Chairman and CEO, Best Buy
"David has written an essential guide for the new CEO. Whether you are leading a public corporation or a major arts organization, Hidden Truths takes a productive approach to some of the most fundamental challenges of the role. David's counsel is practical, positive, and deeply relevant for all new leaders."
-MEREDITH "MAX" HODGES, Executive Director, Boston Ballet
"A McKinsey veteran writes yet another high-minded leadership book-pass the espresso with a 5-hour ENERGY chaser, right? Wrong. David Fubini takes readers behind the C-suite scenes at some of the best-known institutions in America, revealing the vulnerabilities of their leaders and their pragmatic, deeply human insights about how to drive change and achieve success. This isn't a book about theory. It's a book about reality, one in which striking access combines with hard-earned wisdom."
-BRIAN MCGRORY, Editor, Boston Globe
"Hidden Truths gives a unique, behind-the-scenes look at what the reality of leadership feels and looks like. Having experienced the challenge of leadership in military, academic, and business contexts I can readily say there are many important lessons learned for leaders of all types in this book."
-ADMIRAL JAMES STAVRIDIS, USN, former Supreme Allied Commander, NATO
"David Fubini has produced a practical, insightful, and engaging book. He has used his years of consulting access to see 'behind the curtain' and showcase the very real, day-to-day complexities and challenges of being a CEO. He offers powerful and timely suggestions for leaders of all types of organizations."
-DOUG PARKER, Chairman and CEO, American Airlines
"Many arrive in the C-suite with hard earned knowledge, but this is far from sufficient. Successful CEOs, whether in the corporate, educational, or not-for-profit sector, must be able to demonstrate a wisdom borne of knowing what to do, why to do it, and how and when to galvanize others to get the critical work of the organization done on a continuous basis. In his book, David Fubini brilliantly, simply, and compellingly bridges the gap between knowledge gleaned from research and lectures and the wisdom CEOs usually achieve painfully through the trial and error of practice. This well-documented compilation based on his varied experiences at the pinnacle of corporate and academic leadership will flatten the learning curve and enhance the day-to-day efforts of both aspiring and well-experienced CEOs. Truly a must-read!"
-DEBORAH JEWELL-SHERMAN, Ed.D., Gregory R. Anrig Professor of Practice in Leadership, Harvard Graduate School of Education
