In fact, it's arguable that the number two position is the toughest job in a company. COOs play a critical part in executing the strategies developed by top management. And, in many cases, they are being groomed-or test-driven-as the firm's CEO-elect.   Riding Shotgun provides unique insight into this little-understood role. The authors develop a framework that illustrates who the COO is, why a company should create this position, and what the challenges associated with this job entail. Drawing heavily on first-person accounts from top executives, the authors offer a set of strategies to inform individuals who aspire to serve as COO. With a new preface and conclusion, and even more interviews from some of the most established and important companies in today's economy, this book is a one-of-a-kind resource for the C-suite and the boardroom.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"STANFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52273081352466,"sku":"9781503600386","price":76.11,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0508\/3093\/4173\/files\/9781503600386.jpg?v=1778796362","url":"https:\/\/bargainbooks.com.au\/products\/9781503600386","provider":"Bargain Books Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
