My work is leveraged by the CEO Playbook,
a library of 100+ templates and practices for building a thriving organization

Originally for CEOs, the CEO Playbook is now widely used by CEOs, COOs, executive leaders and team leads.

The CEO Playbook is a treasure trove of valuable insights, presented in concise, easy-to-read chapters. What I appreciated most were the actionable tips and ready-to-use templates. I was able to implement new processes and workflows right away. I highly recommend it!

The CEO Playbook

The CEO Playbook assists scale-up leaders in building and managing their internal organizations. It is packed with tools, frameworks, and practices that are ready for immediate implementation.

The Playbook is based on over a decade of research and hands-on experience with our own start-ups and scale-ups. Our initial inspiration came from Netflix, Basecamp, Ricardo Semler, Frédéric Laloux, Matt Mochary, EOS, and many others.

Over time, the methodology behind the CEO Playbook has also been the subject of academic and business research.

The full CEO Playbook contains multiple books worth of content. A partial table of contents can be found below:
