If you ask ten successful CEOs what they do, you'll probably hear many answers--all good, but vastly different from executive to executive.

A dream team of McKinsey partners decided to research the very question based on 200 in-depth interviews and surveys with successful CEOs.

Their findings are found in the new book, CEO Excellence: The Six Mindsets That Distinguish the Best Leaders from the Rest. 

In this conversation, we hear from one of the co-authors, Carolyn Dewar as she talks about s-curves, the kitchen cabinet, defining roles vs. the right people, the 40-30-20-10 Brad Smith rule, and much more.
