This is the first book to take readers into the often secretive world of the CEO selection process. Khurana's findings are surprising and disturbing and show that chosen leaders experience and abilities are not necessarily right for companies' specific needs.

Solid read on leadership selection issues

Khurana does a good job summarizing both empirical studies and providing case studies on how changes in capital markets and social dynamics have skewed the process used to select CEOs as well as compensation, and how both reinforce each other in ways that, long term, are bad for companies and the economy. Some of the analogies hold for other positions as well, but this is primarily about CEOs so not as helpful if you're looking for general leadership topics.
