He also headed his own top management consulting firm for CEOs for a number of years later in his career and was highly recognized for his contributions in that area. Our author also lectured at the university level and to business and professional groups on a variety of subjects over the years—including to heads of organizations. He also received an award for his work on long term planning. One of the special features of this book is what the author calls "The Missing Link".

Additionally, he follows through to show the differences between day to day accountabilities and those things that truly qualify as special objectives. The lines are all too often blurred. This is a book rich with experiences and insight as to some of the things that do work and those that can be problematic.
