Helping CEOs Reach Their Potential

According to the Harvard Business Review, 61% of CEOs feel the loneliness of the role hinders decision making. That number goes to 70% for first time CEOs. Today’s most successful leaders surround themselves with the smartest employee talent and trusted advisors to keep pace with the rapid changes they’re experiencing with their markets; they’re keeping their ego in check to ensure the long-term success of their business.

Having been the CEO role well over a decade, the immense pressure to have all the right answers at times drove me, at times, to insulate myself. There were days where a team or board member would turn to me for answers I just didn’t have. My leaderships approach in these situations is to admit I don’t have the answer. I would be stuck but I could usually lean on mentors and or peers for feedback and support.

But, that took time… emails, text messages, voicemails. Sometimes it would take days or longer to get some time with my most available advisors. And, regardless of my relationship, the calls would usually be short (they all have day jobs).

I didn’t have true confidential, non-judgmental coach with years of business experience available for consultation.

This is why I started Fidus Advisor - providing CEOs and leaders an outlet where they don’t have to wait to tackle the short-term or long-term business challenges facing them and the success of their business.

Let me know if I can help.
