The CEO Project Summer Blog

We want to highlight some of the latest CEO Project Blogs written by Jim Schleckser, our Founder and CEO this summer.


August Blog: When to Add Roles vs. When to Improve Processes

In this blog, we’ll cover how to distinguish between the two, the costs associated with hiring too early, and 

how CEOs can take a more deliberate and strategic approach to scaling their businesses. We will show when and why hiring and systematization should occur together for maximum growth potential in any business venture. Together, these can create an organic, scalable organization.

     

The CEO Project

Are you a company with between $50M and $2B in revenue? 


As the CEO of a larger company, every decision you make carries enormous consequences and risk. The larger and more complex the business, the greater the chance of a mistake, and a big one.


Yet, too often, leaders like you navigate high-stakes challenges in isolation, without the constructive review of peers who have been there and done it.

 

The CEO Project provides a structured environment to pressure-test your thinking, assess risks, and improve the chances for a great outcome

– every time. We do this with a hand-picked group of CEOs running enterprises of similar size and complexity to yours. You might not have faced this decision before, but usually one of your group members has and has insight on the risks.


The result? Avoid costly mistakes and missed opportunities that can threaten everything you’ve built.
