Listen "5 Mistakes of the First Time CEO"
Episode Synopsis
You’ve just taken the seat. Now what? You’re smart. You’ve earned your way here. But no one handed you a playbook for this job. You’re expected to lead with certainty. But every decision feels like you’re making it in the dark. And the pressure? Constant. Quiet. Heavy. Over the years, I’ve worked with dozens of first-time CEOs.From high-growth startups to multi-billion exits. And I’ve seen the same mistakes show up again and again. They don’t happen because you’re not good enough. They happen because the CEO role is unlike anything you’ve done before. In this video, I walk through the 5 most common mistakes I see new CEOs make,and how to avoid them.These aren’t ideas from a whiteboard. They’re lessons pulled from real rooms, real CEOs, and real messes,the kind that don’t make it into case studies.If you're in the chair.. or heading there, this one’s for you. ___Videos for all these episodes are on my YouTube channel.If you enjoy my content and you want to get in touch to find out how I could work with you, or someone you know, you can reach me at:My LinkedIn PageOr you can drop me an email.
