3 Types of CEO
I saw a Facebook post from a guy called Todd Herman last week and I thought his insights are worth a share…
He had spent the past few days quarantined and spent the time talking to a total of 29 CEO’s to unpack their psychology, plans, and current experiences. (Ranging between $2.2M - $511M in Gross Revenue.)
He noticed that each CEO fell into one of three groups… The FEAR-FOCUSED CEO’s - this group is the most emotional, most concerned and most overwhelmed.
The UN-FOCUSED CEO’s - this group is the one still uncertain on what to do, playing wait and see, and most dismissive.
The STRATEGY-FOCUSED CEO’s - this group is the most focused on taking what it’s given and using it and still focused on growth/opportunity.
A lot is going on that you can’t control… But there’s still a lot you have complete control over.
The Fear-Focused CEO will spend all their time thinking, worrying and complaining about the things they can’t control.
The Un-Focused CEO will pay attention to the world around them, but then ultimately do nothing with the information.
The Strategy-Focused CEO pays attention to what they can’t control but spends the majority of their time building a plan of action to execute on what they can control.
What group do you fall into? This week I will be helping Hiring managers put together a plan on how to move forward and push their business through this time of uncertainty if you’d like my help to send me a direct message with the word ‘plan’ to book a call with us.
