Advance praise for the first edition ofThe Five Temptations of a CEO

A must-read for all leaders, not just CEOs. Take it from someone who has been tempted. Better than a personal coach.
Boyd Clarke, president and CEO, The Tom Peters Group

Pat Lencioni delivers a provocative message: CEOs mainly have themselves to blame when things go wrong. If youre a CEO (or any manager for that matter), do you have the courage to face the blame? Doing so could change your futurefor the better.
Dr. Jerry Porras, coauthor, Built to Last; professor Stanford School of Business

A truly enjoyable story. I found myself immediately trying to decide whether I had fallen victim to the temptations. I think most executives will be able to recognize parts of themselves in this well-written, enlightened book!
Ellyn McColgan, president, Fidelity Investments Tax Exempt Services Co.

What a pleasure! Reading The Five Temptations of a CEO was like taking a refreshing look in the mirror and really seeing what was there. There is a little of Andrew OBrien in all of us and, at times, a lot of him in many of us. What a useful tool this book can be for many CEOs.
Lenny Wilkens, the winningest coach in NBA history

This book provides extraordinary insight into the pitfalls that leaders face when they lose sight of the true measure of successresults. This model is required reading for my staff.
Dr. Eric Schmidt, chairman and CEO, Novell Corporation

The most fascinating book I have ever read about management. Pat Lencioni thrusts into the psyche of a CEO in an extremely shrewd manner and reveals the vulnerabilities there. I could not help but feel that I was the one being confronted while reading it.
Tadao Kobayashi, Executive Vice President, American Honda Motor Company

Lencioni goes right to the core of what is at once simple and profoundly hard to do as a leader: to take actions that are conscious and honest, always. He challenges us to be authenticat precisely those moments when we are most tempted to act out of ego, vanity, or fear. When I am doing a good job, Im aware of following the principles he suggests.
Dr. Diane Flannery, CEO, Juma Ventures

Leadership is about motivating others to achieve superior results. It demands that individuals rise above the inherent human temptations so clearly articulated in this book. Insightful and entertaining, The Five Temptations of a CEO provides a practical construct that will help every general manager become more effective.
Thomas J. Tierney, Worldwide Managing Partner, Bain & Company

I normally cringe every time someone insists I read yet another book on leadership or corporate philosophy, but I must admit I warmed up to The Five Temptations of a CEO quicklyplain English, simple truths, eminently digestible.
Graham Spanier, President, Penn State University

A fast-reading page-turner that puts things in their proper perspectiveit makes you realize that corporate life is not as complicated as you think.
Sal Schiliro, Publisher, Street & Smiths Sports Group

The Five Temptations of a CEO tells it like it really is at the top. In vivid prose storytelling, Lencioni depicts the challenge and inspiration of overcoming the five deceptively simple barriers to successful leadership.

Outstanding! Ive read many management books and this one is great! All managers can learn from this quick-reading, honest, and simple to understand book. It is a must read if you want to improve your executive management skills. Ive made a wallet-sized reference card of the five temptations so that I dont stray.
Michael Rowe, President and Chief Operating Officer, New Jersey Nets

The Five Temptations gets to a level of organizational truth in a compelling way. It will change the way we look at our behavior and priorities without feeling guilty. The late-night commute home will never be the same....
Richard A. Moran, best-selling author, Never Confuse a Memo with Reality

Take it from a confirmed business book basher: The Five Temptations of a CEO is not singing the same old song. No jargon, no pseudo-science, no strained sound-bites, no tediumjust a percipient parable for those on whom others depend for leadership.
Mitch Daniels, Senior Vice President, Corporate Strategy and Policy, Eli Lilly and Company

Mark Talucci, President and CEO, The Sak

Most of us have succumbed to one or more of the temptations described in this bookbut not for long. This book is worthy of the attention of any CEO or manager at any level.
Timothy F. Finley, Chairman and CEO, Jos. A. Bank Clothiers

A good story that conveys wisdom for all human institutions, certainly including not-for-profits.
Brian OConnell, Founding President, Independent Sector

Using a novel format, Lencioni guides not only CEOs, but also all managers, to a more productive way of thinking... and acting!
David Chilton, author, The Wealthy Barber

The Five Temptations of a CEO really got me thinking. It made me reexamine my own performance and gave me some insights on how I could do my job better.
Jerome L. Dodson, President, The Parnassus Fund

Lencioni has found a great way to communicate about the issues we face as leaders.... A quick, easy, enjoyable read!
John Stoner, President and General Manager, True Temper Hardware

Well, well, well. I am tempted to read it again! Would that make the sixth temptation? I actually read it on vacation and could not put it down. A very clever approach to bringing clarity to the CEO mystique and process. In leading my own initiatives, these concepts were abundantly relevant. I look forward to providing a copy of this to all the CEOs in our portfolio.
