Is Simon Sinek Wrong About CEOs? Aug 03, 2022

Show notes

A few months ago, Simon Sinek made a video where he said the title of CEO needs to go and be replaced by the title of Chief Vision Officer.

Simon's argument was that for every other role inside of the organization, whether it be the CTO, CHRO, or the CMO, their title basically explains what they do.

But when it comes to a CEO, most people have no clue what that person does and what that role even means.

To be honest, I think most people are actually more confused by a title like CHRO than they are by the title of CEO.

I find that people rarely say they have no idea what a CEO does.

I don't think the issue is so much that we don't know what a CEO does. The issue is more that we don't keep the CEO accountable for doing what we know they should be doing.

We know the role of a CEO is to set the vision, guide the organization, put people first, and create a better world and a better organization.

But do we actually hold CEOs responsible and accountable for doing that?

That is where I think the bigger problem is.

Just changing the title isn't going to make much of a difference.

5 Pieces Of Career Advice I Wish Somebody Told Me Jul 13, 2022

Show notes

There are 5 things I wish I knew earlier in my career.

1. Be a taste tester. When you're younger, you likely won't know what you want to do. It's ok to try different things and see what you like and don't like. Think like a taste tester.

2. Build your own ladder. You don't need to climb anybody else's ladder, especially in this new world of work. Make your own ladder.

3. Make your own decisions. It's okay to listen to the advice of others, but you need to make your own choices. Don't let anybody else make choices for you.

4. Life is too short to be miserable at work. If you are miserable at your job, do something about it.

5. Be self-aware. Understand your strengths and weaknesses to be able to get help from others early on.

Four Ways To Elevate Yourself Jul 06, 2022

Show notes

There are four ways to elevate yourself, according to Robert Glazer, CEO of Acceleration Partners and author of the book Elevate.

1. Spiritually. You have to know yourself and have a level of self-awareness about who you are as a person, what you stand for, and what your values are.

2. Intellectually. Know where you're going, what your goals are, what you want to accomplish, and the direction you want to go in.

3. Physically. Take care of your body, otherwise it becomes very hard to take care of all of these other things as well.

4. Emotionally. This is about your relationships and how you respond to difficult situations and challenges. The emotional level makes all the day-to-day efforts come to life.
