Jim Schleckser - Mastering Leadership in the CEO Role
Jim Schleckser is founder & CEO of The CEO Project, a company that serves CEOs and high-revenue entrepreneurs. Their offering combines peer group meetings and discussions with personalized one-on-one coaching sessions led by former CEOs. We start with Jim's path to his first CEO role, and how coming up from the sales side shaped his approach. And in this context he shared some of his early mistakes and lessons. We then talked about what drove him to choose a more entrepreneurial path. We continue with a deep dive into what makes a CEO successful: how to balance organizational culture and leadership, the importance of building complementary teams, the need to know from the beginning how a business is going to be sustainable from a financial standpoint, when and how to think about raising capital. We finish with some thoughts on how the CEO role has changed over the past 20 years and what are the key traits to be effective.
