Recommendation

Chief investment officers can make big money, but succeeding in this high-stakes field means candidates must possess a well-rounded set of skills. In this practical and perceptive manual, money manager Ted Seides draws up a playbook for aspiring CIOs. Seides bases his advice on a combination of his own experience and the insights he has gained by interviewing other investment officers on his Capital Allocators podcast. To establish a career, Seides says, you'll need to master both relationship building and the discipline of setting investment goals and sticking to them.

Take-Aways

  • Interviewing is one of the main skills required of chief investment officers.
  • CIOs also must become proficient at decision making.
  • Negotiating is another foundational talent for CIOs.
