EP 154 — How to create time to think and accelerate growth as a CEO
The most common thing I hear from CEOs is that they never have time to think. This episode is where I'd start.

You’re not in this alone

Being a CEO is lonely. I’m Phil Hayes-St Clair and I've been there and while it's a privilege, leading through what feels like permanent disruption takes a toll that most people around you can't fully see.

I work one-to-one with CEOs and regional MDs navigating growth, pressure and transition as someone who's built seven companies, served in the military, and sat in the seat you're sitting in now.

The work focuses on three things: scaling you as a leader, strengthening the team around you, and building a business capable of sustaining the growth you're chasing — without it costing you everything.

Before we talk, here are three short podcast episodes that give you a sense of how I think about this work:
