Top CEOs deserve a top CEO Coach. If you're thinking about retaining a top CEO coach, business mentor or personal brand advisor look no further than N2growth...Whether you're a CEO looking for a personal advisor or you happen to represent a board of directors, private equity firm, VC firm, or hedge fund (see our intermediary page), N2growth stands ready to fulfill your needs.
N2growth's CEO Coaching practice is led by Mike Myatt, who is widely regarded as America's Top CEO Coach. Mr. Myatt is the author of "Leadership Matters...The CEO Survival Manual" and is ranked as one of the World's Top 25 Leadership Experts. We invite you to read a recent interview of Mike Myatt in Forbes in which he shares his thoughts on Leadership.
The ever changing complexities of the global business landscape and the increasing pressures and demands for CEO accountability and performace make retaining a skilled CEO coach mandatory for sustainability at the C-suite level (see what others have said about the need for and benefits of CEO Coaching).
Consider the following trends currently affecting the tenure of CEOs:
Almost 80% of the world's leading corporations replaced their chief executive within the last decade.
CEO turnover has increased more than 50% in the last five years alone, with the average length of CEO tenure down to less than 4 years.
Boards of Directors and other key influencing constituencies have become less tolerant of CEO with sub-standard performance.
The only way to avoid the increasing scrutiny of stakeholders, the media, and public opinion is for CEOs to outperform expectations.
For all the things that Thomas Jefferson was known and revered for, the belief that he was most passionate about was the principle that led him to found the University of Virginia...He believed that learning is a life long endeavor whose flame should not be extinguished until a persons last breath had been drawn.
Regrettably, as sound as the Jeffersonian principle of continuing education is, it too often runs contrary to how most CEOs and executives manage their careers. Most successful CEOs and executives make heavy investments in building their skill sets, knowledge base and subject matter expertise early in their careers only to make minimal investments in their professional development when they reach the C-suite. It is however at the C-suite level that an executive must be on top of his/her game as they have the broadest sphere of influence, the largest ability to impact a business and they also now have the most at risk...It is now that they should make the heaviest investment in refining their game because it is at the executive level that increased performance will pay the biggest dividends.
At N2growth we offer exceptional one-on-one leadership development programs that will allow CEOs and other executives to grow beyond their own self-imposed boundaries. The harsh reality of the business world is that most entrepreneurs and senior executives are only as good as their last decision. It is your ability to continue to evolve and to stay ahead of your contemporaries that will keep you on top. Think of any goal that you could set for yourself, or any standard that you could benchmark yourself against and you'll find an intrinsic flaw...the problem is that you only know what you know and you don't know what you don't know. No world-class athlete makes it to the top of their game without a coach so why should your key executives try to perfect your game in the vacuum of isolation. The N2growth CEO coaches and mentors will allow you to see far past your own horizons breaking down barriers and reaching new height of professional development and achievement.
