Can You Learn To Lead Like A CEO?

Описание: If you want to lead like a CEO, the good news is that it can be learned.

The bad news is that it starts with mastering the basics of leadership.

Because leadership is simple, but not easy.

In the opening segment of my interview with Wilfrid Foo back on 29 August 2022 for my Leading the Middle programme, when he was CEO of Cycle & Carriage, this reality that leadership is not simple, but not easy, became very clear.

Cycle & Carriage is a major automotive player in Singapore, representing brands like Mercedes-Benz, Mitsubishi, Kia, and Citroën.

Yet the lessons from that conversation had little to do with cars, and very much about leadership.

Just in this opening segment you are about to see, five leadership lessons stood out:

1 - Contextual credibility matters when introducing oneself.
2 - Leadership does not wait for you to be appointed.
3 - Cultural literacy is a leadership skill.
4 – An effective leader multiplies synergies.
5 - Starting early is uncomfortable, but essential.

None of these are advanced concepts. Just the basics.

If sharpening your leadership is what you are after, this conversation (and analysis) is worth your time.

Which of these leadership lessons are you still postponing, just because they look simple?
