Get excited, my friend -- we have made it to the third installment of our Modern CEO series!
In our previous episode, we talked about how to shift into a Modern CEO growth mindset. In the episode before that, I laid out the four phases of building a business -- and what you should be focusing on in each stage.
(If you haven’t listened to those episodes yet, I highly recommend that you do so!)
Now, I want to build on these ideas even further and focus on how to navigate each stage of business growth without falling into the most common pitfalls.
I like to call them the ‘red alerts’ or danger zones!
These red alerts vary from stage to stage, but they all have something in common: they can lead to overwhelm and self-doubt.
And they can lead to you getting ‘stuck’.
As a Modern CEO, you simply don’t have time to get derailed from your growth plan! So I’m here to help you identify these red alert moments -- and make your way through them with ease!
Oh, and I also want to share with you my absolute favorite strategy for dealing with an overwhelming inbox (consider it a really helpful bonus)!
