"As the essential asset of any company is its CEO, the need for a
rigorous and effective assessment process is mandatory. Dean
Stamoulis offers a compelling case and invaluable tutorial for
evaluating this key corporate asset."
-Thomas A. Renyi, Retired Chairman, The Bank of
New York Mellon
"This book makes a compelling case for senior executive
assessment. Senior Executive Assessment is a valuable tool
for boards of directors, as it tangibly demonstrates effective
corporate governance. More CEOs and boards need to know about the
options described in this book."
-Arthur M. Blank, Co-Founder, Retired Co-Chairman
& CEO, The Home Depot, Owner & CEO, Atlanta Falcons
"Competitive edge will continue to be enjoyed by companies that
ensure they have the right leadership talent. This book provides
real world guidance about how to build a useful senior executive
assessment approach so that organizations can be more objective
about their leaders and their match to strategy. Dean Stamoulis
also offers new and interesting insights to the ongoing discussion
about what makes a senior executive successful. I was particularly
impressed with his focus on learning agility and emotional
intelligence and the need to discern any 'toxic'
tendencies. These areas are critical to ensuring successful hiring
decisions."
-Bill Blase, Senior Executive Vice-President, Human
Resources, AT&T
"Stamoulis' writing style and years of experience allow
him to share examples and hints that really provide useful
information for those trying to understand the what, why, and how
of executive assessment. Stamoulis isn't doing
"assessment-lite" in this volume. On the contrary, the
book is quite solid on substance, but also extremely
accessible."
-Paul E. Levy, University of Akron
