14: Fix the Friction: How C-Suite Leaders Unlock Productivity and Profitability
What’s slowing your C-Suite down? Sometimes it’s not lack of ideas—it’s friction in your systems, people, and processes.
Episode Summary:
In this episode of C-Suite Strategies, host Stacie Sussman sits down with Jen Goldman, Founder of My Virtual COO, to explore how leaders can identify and fix the friction points holding back productivity and profitability. From rethinking team structure to visualizing organizational changes, Jen shares practical, neuroscience-backed tools for creating clarity, accountability, and momentum at the top levels of business.
What You’ll Learn:
- Why most growth stalls aren’t about sales—they’re about operational cracks.
- How visual tools help leaders make big changes without triggering fear.
- The “parking lot” method for prioritizing initiatives without losing ideas.
- How to set boundaries and manage energy for peak performance.
- Why sustainable scaling means caring for your people through change.
Listen if you’re:
- A C-Suite leader feeling bogged down by inefficiencies.
- A founder ready to scale but facing resistance.
- A leader who wants more flow, less chaos.
