Being a CEO at any of the world’s largest companies is among the most challenging roles in business. Billions, and even trillions, are at stake—and the fates of tens of thousands of employees often hang in the balance. Yet, even when “can’t miss” high-achievers win the top job, very few excel. For those who shoulder the burden of being the one on whom everyone counts, a manual for excellence is sorely needed. To identify the 21st century’s best CEOs, the authors of CEO Excellence started with a pool of over 2,400 public company CEOs.

Publisher's summary
An accessible guide to the essential issues of corporate finance.

Filled with in-depth insights from experts at McKinsey & Company, this reliable resource takes a much more qualitative approach to what the authors consider a lost art.
This book:
- Discusses the four foundational principles of corporate finance
- Effectively applies the theory of value creation to our economy
- Examines ways to maintain and grow value through mergers, acquisitions, and portfolio management
- Addresses how to ensure your company has the right governance, performance measurement, and internal discussions to encourage value-creating decisions
A perfect companion to the Fifth Edition of Valuation, this book will put the various issues associated with corporate finance in perspective.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

The finance sector of Western economies is too large and attracts too many of the smartest college graduates. Financialization over the past three decades has created a structure that lacks resilience and supports absurd volumes of trading. The finance sector devotes too little attention to the search for new investment opportunities and the stewardship of existing ones, and far too much to secondary-market dealing in existing assets. Regulation has contributed more to the problems than the solutions.

In the constantly evolving world of finance, a solid technical foundation is an essential tool for success. Until the welcomed arrival of authors Josh Rosenbaum and Josh Pearl, no one had taken the time to properly codify the lifeblood of the corporate financier's work - namely, valuation, through all of the essential lenses of an investment banker. With the release of Investment Banking, Third Edition, Rosenbaum and Pearl once again have created the definitive guide that they wish had existed when they were trying to break into Wall Street.

You get two VALUES from this book
I would definitely recommend this book. For two reasons:
1. For a person like me, who studied corporate finance 20 years ago it's a good, concise and comprehensive summary of current state of knowledge on the subject, with up-to-date illustrations and examples. If you follow McK, their website and are subscribed to their mailing lists, you could accumulate knowledge as presented in this book from those bits, but it's really convenient to have it all in one place.
2. This book is my definite #1 in terms of the ability to put me to sleep - it even beats my hitherto #1, "Introduction to Psychoanalysis" by Sigmund Freud (which I read in paper, so might not be directly comparable) - the latter held this title for 30 years, so it's a proper achievement to beat it.
So in fact you get a really good book on corporate finance and an extremely effective sleeping aid :-))).
