Do you want to become a successful executive?

Posted on July 19, 2024August 22, 2025 by admin

Do you want to become a successful executive?

Succeeding as an executive does not mean doing more of what previously made you successful in your career. It requires a completely different mindset.

Early in your career:
— You are rewarded for working harder and independently solving problems.
— You earn more credibility by knowing more and building domain expertise.
— You get more scope (and promoted!) by taking on more with a “can-do” attitude.

But that all changes if you want to succeed as an executive: 
— You build and lead teams and systems to solve problems rather than do the work yourself.
— You ask questions of the experts to manage tradeoffs across different domains.
— You decide on the top strategic priorities to address, and deliver results through others by mobilizing and coordinating people across different functions and perspectives.

I will be offering a masterclass this fall for a select group of participants to develop these executive skills and think differently about how they approach their jobs.

If you want to learn more about what we’ll be covering, I’ll be leading a one hour free webinar next Friday, July 26th, at 9am Pacific to introduce you to the concepts. Please register at https://lnkd.in/g746rhaB to attend (or to receive the recording if you can’t attend live).

I will be opening applications for the masterclass after the webinar. Please DM or email me with any questions – thanks!
