Listen now
Description
โ€œYour direct reports actually want you to provide a clear framework and guidance, and then get out of their way so they can do the job you're paying them to do.โ€ Chief, today we complete our Think Like a CEO Series, and weโ€™re going to look at how great chiefs work on the business, not in the business. As you move up the ranks, your role increasingly becomes about working on the business. If you are in a senior or executive role, this is about stepping out of the day-to-day operational grind: the thousands of tasks, the endless emails, the back-to-back meetings, the constant demands of stakeholders. That is what your employer actually employs you for. The best leaders I've ever met embrace this responsibility. They look beyond their immediate role and work to improve the entire organisation. ๐ŸŽง๐Ÿ‘‰ chiefmaker.com/345 ๐Ÿ‘‚ ย  DOWNLOAD THE CHIEF MAKER OPERATING RHYTHM HOW TO GUIDE AND PUT YOUR VISION AND MISSION INTO ACTION FAST: ย chiefmaker.com/operatingrhythm ย  In this episode, I talk about: โœ…ย  Being a person of value and having the courage to start letting go โœ…ย  Building a tight operating rhythm to engage a high performing team, and โœ…ย  Not going it alone and bringing in trusted advisors to help you on your journey.
