CMi Merryck for CEOs
CEOs are increasingly challenged to deal with new and complex demands from a growing variety of stakeholders. Often under the pressure of 24/7 public scrutiny they must make decisions on matters they have never experienced before. Working with globally diverse and often remote executive teams and boards the role has never been more complex. Delivery against both ESG and Performance goals brings significant paradoxes to be worked through.
Deep Understanding
The benefit of the sage counsel and effective coaching skills of highly experienced Mentors who have been there before themselves is invaluable. Often the mentor offers the only truly confidential and totally impartial perspective a CEO can seek.
“I worked with two very experienced mentors for a year before I became CEO. I sought their counsel and identified challenges privately and confidentially. I always knew the mentoring was beneficial, but it was only when I became CEO that I fully appreciated how invaluable the advice and guidance had been in preparing me for the new role. There are some things that you can learn only from people who have been there and done it.”
