Episode notes

In this episode, Chris Do explores the constant tension between visionary leadership and operational execution. He breaks down how most leaders naturally lean toward either the CEO archetype — focused on innovation, forecasting, and long-term vision — or the COO type, who ensures systems, structure, and profitability.

Using Steve Jobs as an example, Chris illustrates how true mastery lies in balancing big-picture thinking with an obsessive attention to detail, from pioneering the buttonless phone to handpicking marble for Apple Stores.
