Growth Position with Hamish Mackenzie

CEO Positioning for Maximum Impact Part 1


Listen Later

In this episode, I explain why your personal positioning as a CEO is critical to establishing an effective growth position for your business. I also give you 5 practical and immediately actionable tips to improve your positioning within your organization:

1) Take the tough decisions early: Why a fast, clear decision and 80% accuracy is better than procrastinating to be 100% sure you're not making a mistake
2) Talk to everyone - but don't let everyone speak: Why letting everyone "have their say" is insane. Listen to people whose opinion matters.
3) Focus on gains not problems: Why it's better to turn great people into superstars, rather than trying to get poor performers up to average.
4) Take some of the glory and all of the blame: Bask in the glory of successes, but stand up and be counted when something goes wrong.
5) Replace time-management with self-management: Why time management is a myth, and how to outperform Fortune 500 CEOs before 9am.
