Book Description

Joel Trammell’s new book, The CEO Tightrope: How to Master the Balancing Act of a Successful CEO, prepares seasoned and aspiring CEOs for this very unique and unpredictable position—a job that most are unprepared for and at which many fail too soon.  This thought-provoking book by a long-time entrepreneur, IT-industry expert, investor and former instructor at the Naval Nuclear Power School delivers a proven approach for solving a CEO’s most difficult challenges.

In his new book, drawn from almost 30 years of study and experience, Trammell identifies over fifty daily struggles that pull CEOs off balance and offers modern techniques and approaches to help them regain balance. The CEO Tightrope also shares stories that help other CEOs assess their own strengths and weaknesses, and provides questions promoting self-analysis. Filling a void in the market for a clear, compelling guide for CEOs, The CEO Tightrope will likely become the go-to valued resource for current CEOs and even business students alike.
