Presenting the Office of the CEO Playbook, 1st Edition.

This go-to reference guide spans 62 pages and covers 44 topics on all things related to the CEO Office, including Strategy, Planning, Team, Enablement and Execution.

Insights are drawn from the 100s of Office of the CEO primary research interviews we've conducted with top leaders at companies such as McKesson, JP Morgan and Apple.

This project builds on the momentum from our Chief of Staff playbooks, which have been downloaded by more than 5,000 leaders hailing from 91 countries, working at diverse organizations such as OpenAI, McKinsey & Company and the US Navy.

For CEOs, founders and top executives, you'll explore what's an Office of the CEO and why do you need one, how to build an Office of the CEO, and how you can leverage an Office of the CEO to become a fast and fearless leader.

For Chiefs of Staff and Executive Assistants, you'll discover how you can become an elite Office of the CEO professional with detailed playbooks on topics like meeting protocol, board management and executive retreats as well as Office of the CEO budgeting, metrics and ROI.
