One of the biggest myths in growing a business? That your first executive hire has to be full-time. The traditional thinking goes like this… Once your startup reaches a certain size or revenue target, you must bring on a full-time C-suite leader. Someone to “own” operations, finance,...
Being a CEO isn’t just about setting the vision, fueling growth, and crafting strategy. It’s about steering the business through the moments that test leadership the most—the hard conversations. If you’re doing the job right, you’ll eventually face them. And, how you handle these conversations often...
It might sound counterintuitive—especially to founders who’ve poured everything into building their business from scratch—but it’s a truth more CEOs need to embrace: Your job isn’t to be needed everywhere. Your job is to build something that works—even when you’re not in the room. In the early...
