#180 CEO Summit Part 1 Interview 3 - Carolyn Cresswell - Your career is 1 aspect of the plates you are juggling

Welcome to Interview three in the 6-part CEO Series Visionary Voices where I explore the CEO Mindset and path to success. Carolyn Cresswell CEO & Founder of Carman's Kitchen, proves you can have a multinational business, love what you do and genuinely balance all the spinning plates. Carolyn is the ultimate "Multiplying" leader, ensuring her team have what they need to succeed (including discretionary decision-making), enabling her to focus on the areas she adds the most value - strategy and product! Carolyn shares so many pivotal moments in her truly successful growth story. I loved our conversations, rich in advice and her playbook should be devoured by executives of all levels. If Carolyn's success were an equation it is the sum of perseverance + strategic planning + hiring very good people + creating a supportive work environment x having a rich non-work life.
Enjoy this fabulous conversation.
