Jeannette shares valuable insights on how to maintain sanity as a CEO or business leader, drawing from her 30 years of experience in corporate and entrepreneurial roles, and providing ten practical tips for not only surviving but thriving in high-pressure leadership positions.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Gain a fresh perspective by stepping back from day-to-day operations.
- Have a compelling vision for the business and yourself to stay motivated during tough times.
- Seek support from partners to bounce ideas off and gain fresh perspectives.
- Be aware of ego-driven desires for control and affirmation to avoid negative impacts.
- Create a safe space to recuperate and rejuvenate to sustain the demands of leadership roles.
BEST MOMENTS
"As a business leader, you are always having to navigate between being on the dance floor, right, with your team, delivering the day-to-day, but you also need to be able to walk up onto that balcony to get a fresh perspective and to be able to see the bigger picture."
"Having a clear vision, really, really important. Find partners that you can bounce ideas off may really help you when you're struggling as a leader or when you just really want a fresh perspective or someone that understands what you're going through."
"Be very, very aware of the pace of change. Make sure you're bringing people with you on the journey, but also make sure you're able to handle the level of stress and the pace that you are moving."
This is the perfect time to get focused on what YOU want to really achieve in your business, career, and life. It’s never too late to be BRAVE and BOLD and unlock your inner BRILLIANCE.
