Lessons from a first-time CEO

摘要

I began my first CEO role over a year ago for the New Zealand cellular heath company MitoQ, just as Covid was spreading rapidly around the globe and New Zealand was entering its very first lockdown.Not exactly ideal timing, but this piece isn't about Covid, even though that brought unique challenges, it's about sharing some lessons from a first-time CEO.My hope is that others who are stepping into their first CEO role, or are aiming to one day, can find some helpful insights here. And for those who are experienced CEOs, that you can recognise some shared challenges and learnings.
