Welcome to What To Know For The CEO.

This point of the podcast will be obvious, but not the why. Being a CEO is hard. It’s intellectually, emotionally and physically demanding. That’s true whether you’re relatively new to the role or have been in the seat for a long time.

The more consulting engagements we completed, the more we realized the value of sharing our stories and lessons learned from working with other CEOs and subject matter experts. So we talk to both and share our own experiences and know-how.
