Becoming CEO is a dream for many—but few understand just how emotionally turbulent and strategically complex that transition really is.
In this powerful episode, Dr. Ty Wiggins, global head of the CEO and Executive Transition Practice at Russell Reynolds, reveals what most leaders get wrong in their first year, why being “smart” isn’t enough, and how to avoid the crash that hits so many executives around the 6-month mark. With clients ranging from first-time CEOs to seasoned global leaders, Ty brings a rare behind-the-scenes perspective on pressure, presence, and emotional control. Whether you're a senior leader, a founder, or simply want to level up your leadership, this episode is filled with actionable insights you’ll want to write down.
What you'll learn in this episode:
- Why emotional control—not IQ—is the most undervalued CEO skill
- The one mindset shift that separates good leaders from great ones
- How to communicate decisions without sparking fear and confusion
