Executive Skill Set

Communication

• Executive Presence
• Re-routing the narrative
• Answering a binary, zero-sum question
• Gokul Rajaram has a useful template for the “CEO weekly email”, this might be adaptable to other roles and functions but seems to have a high administrative overhead¹.

Organizational Change and Change Management

• Mergers and Acquisitions
• Business → Architecture → Process → Organization (BAPO)

Strategy

• Metrics
  • A counterpoint to rise of managing by metrics is Goodhart’s Law.
• Risk Management
