Summary
Years ago, while I was on a job site, someone asked me, "What exactly do you get paid to do?" My answer was simple: "I get paid to think."
To this day, I still stand by that statement. CEOs, especially those of us in the creative space, need time and space to think. It's in that intentional time of reflection and vision-casting that we're able to chart the path forward and guide our businesses to where we want them to go.
In today's episode, I'm diving into what it really means to think like a CEO. I'll share some of the mindset shifts and practical tactics I use to sort through the hundreds of ideas, questions, and challenges that pop into my head every single day. From creating margin for deep thought, to making decisions with clarity, to balancing creativity with strategy, this is the work of a true CEO.
