How Does The Right Thing Happen... When The CEO Is Wrong About it?

Updated: May 28


How does the #right thing happen, when the #CEO is #wrong about it? 



A few examples:



🔺 Larry Page was highly hesitant about Chrome



🔺 Steve Jobs initially opposed the iPhone App Store



🔺 Hastings didn't want Netflix children's programming



All of these were insanely valuable to each business



And this list could be hundreds of lines long.


______________________



The right thing gets done


despite the #CEO being wrong


when they've built a culture based upon... 



🔸 VULNERABILITY


 It's truly okay to be wrong 



🔸 ARGUMENT


 Debate gets to much better answers



🔸 SCIENCE


 Evidence settles a debate stuck in loggerheads



Many CEOs instead...



• Struggle to admit they could be wrong


• Shut down debate, operating with a mandate


• Favor masterful-yet-unsubstantiated storytelling



And culture of an org


almost ALWAYS flows downward


from how the #CEO & #C-Suite operates day-to-day.

🟩🟩🟩 ACTION 🟩🟩🟩



If you're a #CEO, #CRO, or #COO who


wants to be challenged on how you show up


so that the organizational #Culture is also optimized



 ▶️ REACH OUT ◀️



and we can talk about both 


a personal #ChangeManagement effort for you,


along with a Cultural Transformation program for the org
