The Aerospace Executive Podcast
News:Business News
Many people talk about wanting to be leaders, but a very small number actually turn that dream into reality.
The harsh truth is, most people won’t become CEOs or even grow their careers to a higher level, because they’re just not thinking the right way.
So, how does a leader think, and how are their habits different from those of the average Joe? Is there a way to change our mindsets so they’re better suited to a leadership role?
In this episode, executive recruiter and President of MR Fairfax, Robert Houghton and I are discussing the common attributes ALL great leaders have in common, and how to emulate them in our own careers.
"Thinking like a CEO is a difficult thing to master because you have to be part-owner, part-employee and captain of the ship." -Robert Houghton
