The New CEO Workbook
A Practical Guide for CEOs to Start Well and Perform Quickly
Created by Ty Wiggins
As a new CEO, there will come a point when you will crash, when you will wonder if you’re really up to the challenge—or if you’ve bitten off more than you can chew.
You will likely have days where you will think, "I'm killing it; I'm born to be CEO." Then, very quickly, you’ll take a couple of knocks, and think, "I cannot do this." This is a common pattern. The reality is that no CEO goes through their transition unscathed.
When you face the inevitable crash, effective navigation strategies can help you:
- Transform moments of doubt into powerful opportunities for recalibration
- Draw on your carefully cultivated support network for perspective
- Reconnect with your core purpose as a leader during difficult times
- Focus your energy on the responsibilities only you can fulfil
- Emerge stronger with deeper insight and clearer priorities
How The New CEO Workbook can help you
As leadership advisors, we've seen every successful CEO face moments of doubt during their transition—it's not whether you'll crash, but how you navigate it. In Chapter 9: Navigating the Crash, we provide frameworks to help you prepare for and work through these inevitable challenges while maintaining your effectiveness.
The exercises, reflections, and guidance in this workbook help you develop strategies to build support systems, and use difficult moments as opportunities to reset assumptions and reconnect with your core purpose as a leader.
Key questions to address when navigating challenges:
- What gap between expectation and reality is causing unnecessary stress?
- Who is in your 'kitchen cabinet' of support for difficult moments?
- How have your personal definitions of success evolved as a leader?
- Which tasks could be handled by someone else on your team?
- What percentage of your time is focused on CEO-level responsibilities versus other activities?
What you'll find in this workbook
Chapter 9: Navigating the Crash is just one part of your successful transition. The New CEO Workbook covers all aspects of a CEO transition. Explore each chapter to work through all dimensions of your journey.
