Today I'm joined by Sherman Black, a CEO coach who focuses primarily on leaders running small and mid-sized enterprises.
In our discussion today we cover a wide range of topics, including some of the following:
- Misconceptions around what CEO coaches do (and don’t do)
- When & how to hire a coach
- How to think about cost and ROI in making that hiring decision
- Whether a coach needs direct experience as a CEO themselves
- Whether your coach should have a direct line of communication with your Board and/or senior leadership team
- How to quickly evaluate the health of the relationship between the CEO and her direct reports
- How coaches think about popular small business operating systems like EOS
- …and many others
