Episode 169: What Makes a Great CEO? (It's Not What You May Think)

Bob 'n Joyce Talk HR 'n OD

In this episode, Joyce shares the characteristics and unique qualities of high performing CEOs she has worked with over her career. Again, Joyce reaches into her treasure chest of written reflections and makes them available to you, our valued listeners. Her observations are anything but your typical list of traits or rigid leadership models. What she shares may surprise you.

There is a lot of really good ‘stuff’ packed in today’s conversation.

Come on in. Grab a snack. Welcome!
