Steve Sanghi, retired CEO and chair of the board of directors of Microchip Technology, today announces the release of his third book, “Ask Steve: Everyday business advice from a successful CEO.” Sanghi offers practical and real-world business advice based on his highly regarded leadership style and overall business acumen.

Building on the success of his previous books, “Ask Steve: Everyday business advice from a successful CEO,” is an extension of the popular business advice column that ran in the Arizona Republic from 2007 to 2014. In the column, Sanghi responded to business inquiries from individuals at various career levels, offering solutions to both personal and professional challenges. “I contributed to the ‘Ask Steve’ column as a way to give back to the community and help others using my own experiences,” Sanghi said. The column featured advice on a range of professional concerns from individual career advancement to global trade dilemmas.

The book gathers questions from over seven years of the column, providing insights into topics such as:

• Career development and advancement
• Global trade challenges
• Management issues
• Advice for investors and marketers
• International business complexities

This release follows Sanghi’s previous books, Driving Excellence: How the Aggregate System Turned Microchip Technology from a Failing Company to a Market Leader (co-authored with Michael J. Jones) and Up and to the Right: My Personal and Business Journey Building the Microchip Technology Juggernaut (2023).

The sound advice in “Ask Steve” provides a comprehensive guide for anyone seeking practical business advice and is sure to be a constant desk reference for professionals from CEOs to recent graduates. Sanghi’s firsthand experience as a successful leader makes his advice relevant and actionable in today’s fast-paced business environment.

The book is available for purchase on Amazon or here.
