A CEO coach shares new leaders’ biggest blindspots (and how to overcome them)

Season 1 · Episode 138

mercredi 4 septembre 2024 • Duration 46:21

Ty Wiggins coaches leaders during the hardest moment in their careers – the shift from mere mortal to CEO. He drives the CEO and executive transition practice at consultancy Russell Reynolds and has had a backstage pass to what works (and what doesn’t) in the top role. He’s put what he’s leaned into a new book, The New CEO, and in this wide-ranging interview, he shares tactical advice that can help any leader adjust, from what to do in the first 100 days, how to get more honest feedback from your team, common pitfalls to avoid, the traits effective leaders must develop and how leaders can adjust to a new reality where your words have outsized impact and few people tell you “no.”
