This is much more than a book: It’s your day-by-day success system. Leadership in 100 Days offers you the roadmap to power and impact—even and especially in a time of crisis and constraints. Whatever goal you put your mind to (professional and personal), this easy-to-use toolkit will give you the capacity to achieve it.
For a tiny fraction of the cost to hire a coach, Leadership in 100 Days offers you the roadmap to your success as a leader. “Very pragmatic self-study guide that with personal discipline provides a clear road map towards (increased) success.” —Hans Toggweiler, CEO Americas, DHL
Of course there are no guarantees. “Life is,” John Lennon quipped famously, “what happens when you had other plans.” But thousands of Dr. Zweifel’s clients, students and readers—not to mention himself—have utilized these tools to meet strategic imperatives and realize their dreams, in business and in life, for more than three decades.
”Leadership in 100 Days delivers what most leadership books don’t: It gives you real access to leadership, day after day, brick by brick, on the job of making something happen. For any executive who needs to reboot his or her leadership, and for companies that need better leaders.” —Hanspeter Mathis, Managing Director, Uvex Safety Switzerland
Leaders have used this system to catalyze the achievement of their own dreams, from landing that dream job to launching a Brazilian restaurant in Harlem, from taking their family company into eCommerce to building a Blockchain startup, from boosting innovation to bringing a prototype to market, from creating social impact ventures in Benin or Bangladesh to bringing the Olympic Games to Jerusalem. (Well, this last one is still underway, and frankly it’s a bit of a long shot.)
“Use the Global Leader Pyramid® to gain clarity in the dynamics of communication. Think first, find where you are in the Pyramid, and drive your meetings, conversations and relationships to action and success!” —Judd Maltin, Systems Principal Engineer, Dell
Teams have profited from this system to reduce overtime and budget creep for a satellite build from 100% overtime (and over budget) to 10%, saving millions; to kill the billing backlog in a law-firm, making millions; to grow retail sales from innovative products by 11% while retail in the industry declined; or to save $200 million by offshoring 5,000 knowledge workers while maintaining morale in a financial services giant.
One used the roadmap to build his own executive jet company. A few years later he called Dr. Zweifel to report back that his company was now on Inc. Magazine’s list of the 500 fastest-growing companies.
The purpose of Leadership in 100 Days is to give both experienced and emerging leaders a vehicle (that’s the original meaning of the word “coach” anyway; before there were automobiles, horse-drawn coaches brought people to their desired destinations) for self-paced, systematic self-coaching.
“Indeed a ‘coach in a book’ that confronts you with your own blindspots and charts a course you might not take on your own—the path of leadership. A huge return on investment.” —Martin Naville, CEO, Swiss-American Chamber of Commerce
Put Leadership in 100 Days to work for you today—and build your success, step by step, day by day.

In times of crisis, alignment on a shared strategy is even more crucial, and more elusive. Frustrated by organizational silos, fragmentation or resistance to change? Tugs-of-war, with everyone pulling in different directions? Can’t seem to get real buy-in or jumpstart implementation?
The award-winning Strategy-In-Action shows how companies ended the long-standing divorce between planners and implementers. One saved $200m from people power, another made €74m from innovation.
The problem is, traditional planning no longer guarantees success. Rapid change, uncertainty, new technologies and a flatter world call for a new approach: Think Big, Start Small, Move Fast.
Zweifel, strategy & performance expert and award-winning author, and Borey, CEO and turnaround guru, use their experience at Fortune 500 companies, SMEs, UN/government agencies, and the military to offer a turn-key methodology that yields quick wins and stands the test of time.
CEOs, senior managers and strategists will find a systematic 7-step roadmap:
• 11 differences of Strategy-In-Action (e.g. Strategy for vs. Strategy with): a checklist for your dynamic strategy.
• 6 ways to move from silos to alignment among multiple stakeholders.
• How to overcome resistance or indifference—and maximize buy-in. Ask these key questions and give voice to dissenters without losing control.
.• 4 powerful questions for a shared understanding of the whole—including best practices and checklists.
• How to get intelligence from far-flung locations that are less invested in the status quo and more open to innovation.
• 3 proven tools to align on a strategic intent as a magnet for action and filter for operational decisions.
• 7 steps for building a dynamic strategy roadmap back from the future. First you do a SWOT, then plan, then act, right? Wrong. Never plan from the circumstances, with examples (even flipcharts, of course anonymous).
• The shocking truth about metrics. Many strategists use the wrong indicators, with unintended/disastrous outcomes. How to drive execution from a single dashboard with 5 key metrics.
• How to foster a leadership mindset. As Peter Drucker said, culture eats strategy for breakfast. How do you get your team obsessed with winning? Eye-opening use cases.
• 6 rules for getting quick wins, screening out losers and getting feedback from the action. The key: Catalyze path-breaking action, then have the action inform the strategy. Actionable cases.
• … and finally, How to control the momentum. Use the Worksheet to drive the whole process with ease and position yourself as a trusted strategy guru.
