About This Book

There is no surefire way, or magic bullet, to achieve success in business. International senior executive Rob Waite discovered that the tools for creating success are more complex than one concept or one formula that many authors have pushed in the past. Experience has shown him that there are seven foundational capabilities today’s high performing business leaders need to master:

  • Understand the Purpose of a Business
  • Create a Strategic Value Proposition
  • Get the Right Things Done
  • Exert Leadership and Influence
  • Possess Mental Toughness
  • Engage
  • Proactive Career Management
  • Pivot from “Me” to “We”
In No Magic Bullets, Waite brings you the wisdom and experience of fourteen incredibly successful executives. He provides step-by-step instructions for mastering each of the Seven Capabilities that every serious corporate executive, private equity-backed executive, and entrepreneur need to know and do in order to reach their goals. No Magic Bullets is unlike the formulaic models of the past. It is a new way to think for yourself in business and in life. This is the definitive foundation for a prosperous future for your career and your company.
