The Enlightened Executive

The Making of a COO (feat. Cameron Herold)


Listen Later

The relationship between a CEO and a COO is akin to that of yin and yang. Each leader uses their unique abilities and interests to help the company grow, all while staying in their own lane.

 

The key is to find a truly compatible counterpart, build a foundation of trust and honesty, and have confidence in the other person’s ability to get the job done without having to constantly check-in with each other.

 

Cameron Herold is someone who truly understands this dynamic from having accumulated 25+ years of corporate management experience, built two $100 million companies before the age of 42, and founded the COO Alliance. He has also written several business books, including his new book, The Second in Command.

 

In this episode of The Enlightened Executive podcast, Cameron shares the DOs and DON'Ts of hiring (and if necessary, firing) a COO, common misconceptions, challenges, and two things COOs can start doing tomorrow to become the leader they're meant to be.
