The Rabbi and the CEO: The Ten Commandments for 21st Century Leaders

What if you had the secret sauce of some of the most successful people anywhere? Use this 10-part system based on the Ten Commandments to meet any challenge and win big.

What if you got access to the secret DNA that had a tiny fraction of humanity (0.2%) win 22% of all Nobel prizes and succeed disproportionately in many fields of human endeavor?

What if you had a system for meeting any challenge and building success predictably— professionally and personally?

Amazingly, such a toolbox has been hiding in plain view for 3,000 years. It’s… the Ten Commandments. But not the dusty Ten Commandments you know.

It took teaming up a Rabbi and a CEO to harness the power of the Ten Commandments for today’s challenges. Each Commandment holds a secret key to success. Together, they will make you invincible.

In a unique synergy, Dr. Zweifel, former CEO, Columbia professor and award-winning author of 7 books like Strategy-In-Action and Communicate or Die, joined with Rabbi Raskin, Jewish leader and author of Letters of Light, to blend the timeless wisdom of the Ten Commandments with a cutting-edge methodology from 35+ years of management.

"The leadership wisdom contained here is timeless, powerful and actionable—just what you'd expect when you combine a Rabbi and a CEO!"
—Scott A. Snook, Professor of Organizational Behavior, Harvard Business School

"An insightful ‘lighthouse’ to navigate the dynamic world of leadership and management in the 21st century.”
—Dr. Martin Cross, CEO, Novartis-Australia

Jews are not the “People of the Book” by accident. Torah, Talmud and Kabbalah hold life-and-death leadership stories and astonishingly practical lessons for 21st-century managers and leaders of all stripes.

You needn’t be Jewish or religious to profit from these timeless secrets. They’ve stood the test of time; they’re built to last:
• How to free yourself from your own “Egypt” (the Hebrew word for “Egypt” means “limitations”) and move beyond outdated mindsets. Including a checklist for overcoming blind-spots.
• How to build your own vision not based on false idols or external expectations, and move from reaction-mode to standing in the future.
• A 6-step method to resolve any issue—without provoking World War III. • How to lead through language—from excuses, complaints and blame games to commitment and action.
• The 3 secrets for listening between the lines and taking charge of a meeting or negotiation.
• How to say No, step back and build “Islands in the Sea of Time” for what truly matters.
• 3 tools for regulating emotions so you keep your cool.
• The 4 ethical dilemmas and how to tackle each.
• The smartest investment in customer loyalty.
• The killer-app of successful leaders: 3 steps from breakdown to breakthrough that make you unstoppable.
• … and finally, how to win any battle by standing in the shoes of clients, competitors, even adversaries.

"Regardless of your religious beliefs, the lessons are universal and continue to be timely. This is a book executives should read and share with their co-workers."
—Jay Greenspan, Founder, JMJ Associates

“Do yourself a favor: Get this book. It offers a kind of leadership power that is all too often missing in boardrooms and that you simply won't find elsewhere."
—Ali Velshi, Anchor, Senior Economic & Business Correspondent, NBC News

If you like stories of the good, the bad and the ugly, but also practical step-by-step systems and a touch of humor, then you’ll love Zweifel’s and Raskin’s award-winning book about how to use the Ten Commandments for maximum mileage.
