Welcome to Interview three in the 6-part CEO Series Visionary Voices where I explore the CEO Mindset and path to success. Carolyn Cresswell CEO & Founder of Carman's Kitchen, proves you can have a multinational business, love what you do and genuinely balance all the spinning plates. Carolyn is the ultimate "Multiplying" leader, ensuring her team have what they need to succeed (including discretionary decision-making), enabling her to focus on the areas she adds the most value - strategy and product! Carolyn shares so many pivotal moments in her truly successful growth story. I loved our conversations, rich in advice and her playbook should be devoured by executives of all levels. If Carolyn's success were an equation it is the sum of perseverance + strategic planning + hiring very good people + creating a supportive work environment x having a rich non-work life.

Welcome to Interview two in the 6-part CEO Series Visionary Voices where I explore the CEO Mindset and path to success. What is the journey to growing a CEO Mindset? Just ask Bernie Brookes AM to share his career journey and you get a great roadmap. Bernie shares his inspiring story and the mindset needed to succeed in senior roles. From his humble beginnings as a 10-pound pom to leading large companies, Bernie emphasizes the importance of being relatable, stepping out of your lane, and embracing feedback (ouch!). His anecdotes from working in Africa highlight the need to adapt communication styles, even if it means dancing! Bernie’s reflections on bias and his advice to new CEOs, like leaving time for thinking and making the coffee, are invaluable. Now, as a mentor to today’s and future CEOs, Bernie’s humble, servant leadership continues to inspire.

Welcome to Interview One in the 6-part CEO Series Visionary Voices where I explore the CEO Mindset and path to success. Could a light hearted remark spark a wonderful career? You bet! This happened for Jeanne Johns. "If you don't get discovered by the time you're 30, your career is over." This comment was shared by her boss when Jeanne was only 22 or 23 years old. Jeanne thought "Well, that's the game, I'll need to find a way!" This light-hearted remark became a driving force for her to get noticed and make impactful changes.

In this interview I have the pleasure of speaking with Jeanne Johns, the former Managing Director and CEO of Incitec Pivot, as she shares her remarkable journey from the Midwest to leading a world-class industrial explosives and fertilizers organization. With a 30-year career at BP, Jeanne played a pivotal role in transforming BP's safety and operating risk culture following the Deepwater Horizon accident.
