520    Nearly two-thirds of all leaders entering executive roles 
       lack sufficient understanding of what is required and are 
       unprepared for what they will face, which explains why 50 
       percent of them fail within the first eighteen months.  
       For decades we have known that failure rates among 
       transitioning executives are too high, causing exorbitant 
       costs, damaged organizations, and stalled careers. Still, 
       little has changed in the way organizations prepare 
       leaders to assume executive positions. Three-fourths of 
       new executives say their organization did not adequately 
       prepare them for the executive office. It doesn't have to 
       be this way.  If you are an executive--or you're aspiring 
       to be one--and considering how you will navigate the 
       ascent in your organization, Rising to Power will serve 
       you like no other resource can. Odds are high you have 
       watched a promising executive fail on their way up. Like 
       many, you scratched your head, wondering, ''Why didn't 
       they see that coming?'' Now you're hoping not to be the 
       next one that falls. Rising to Power will guide you on a 
       predictable journey of ascent, through the transitional 
       moments and issues most common in executive failure.
