Learning needs a bit of an upgrade in areas
Workplace readiness… can have a business set up in a day… self-driven experience/learning at a much earlier age
Not a career-for-life mentality anymore
Leadership readiness… how to get here.
Start hiring for behaviors not qualifications
70% is ok in the corporate world; speed is key.
Perfection is not the key, but the continued evolution.
The Potential CEO, taking ownership
It’s not just about stepping up and doing more
One CEO is not enough - there has to be a more collective approach.
“Stepping Out” - make decisions at my level
Challenge/Opportunity -
Fail fast, fail forward, fail often
Hopeful -
Learn quickly and a faster track to failing…
