Figure out your strengths and lean into them as well as learn to recognise your weaknesses. Find someone to help with the things you aren’t naturally great at.
Overnight success is a myth, everyone has failures.
To be a successful CEO, you need to struggle and have difficulties, figuring things out as you go.
There is not a one-size-fits-all go-to-market strategy. You need to research and decide which would work best for your business as well as you as a CEO or founder.
Speaking to real people gives you a different type of knowledge and wisdom than if you were to just ask Google, or AI for the answer. People talking about their own experiences is invaluable.
What it takes to become a successful CEO when odds are against you.
BEST MOMENTS
“Every CEO I spoke to had exceptional strengths but also had significant weaknesses”
“Every interview struggles massively at points in their life, nobody had a perfect plan from day 1”
“There’s not one single cheat code for growth”
“My eyes have been opened to things and areas I didn’t even know existed”
