Product Information
Meet eight iconoclastic CEOs who helmed firms where returns on average outperformed the S&P 500 by over 20 times. You may not know some of their names (Henry Singleton, Bill Anders, Tom Murphy)--but you will recognize many of their companies (General Cinema, Ralston Purina, The Washington Post Company, Berkshire Hathaway). In this book, you'll learn the consistent and rational traits that helped these select leaders achieve that exceptional performance. Humble, unassuming, and often frugal, these "outsiders" shunned Wall Street and the press and shied away from hot management trends.

A highly effective playbook for excellence.", "Thorndike wants to give any manager or business owner the confidence to occasionally do things differently from your peers ... to make the most of the cards they're dealt and to delight their shareholders." -- Financial Times "An extremely instructive read...well worth the effort." -- Business Traveller magazine "This is an eminently readable volume with plenty of lessons." -- The Irish Times Advance Praise for The Outsiders : Jim Collins, author, Good to Great ; coauthor, Built to Last and Great by Choice -- "Will Thorndike dissects an eclectic and fascinating group of business leaders who created exceptional long-term value. He takes the unique angle of examining great CEOs as chief allocators of capital, so disciplined in their empirical rationality as to be nonconformists in the very best sense. Thorndike's take is fresh, smart, and provocative--and well worth learning." Michael J. Mauboussin, Chief Investment Strategist, Legg Mason Capital Manament≥ author, The Success Equation -- "Will Thorndike provides management principles that are as rock solid as they are rare and shares the engaging stories of eight CEOs who lived by them. The ideas in this book provide both executives and investors with the North Star of value. Follow it and prosper." Mason Hawkins, Chairman and CEO, Southeastern Asset Management-- " The Outsiders is a must-read for leaders--and aspiring leaders--striving to become exceptional CEOs, and for investors interested in partnering with exceptional stewards of corporate capital." Walter Kiechel, author, The Lords of Strategy -- "If creating wealth for shareholders is the ultimate test of a CEO, meet the champions. The names of these 'outsiders' may come as a surprise, but you will learn valuable strategic lessons from their iconoclastic ways." Thomas A. Russo, Partner, Gardner Russo & Gardner-- "The Outsiders celebrates leaders who kept their firms focused, rewarded their management despite long periods of inactivity, and--by keeping their companies out of trouble--found themselves free to pounce when compelling opportunities arose. A highly effective playbook for excellence."
