The road to CEO

The road to CEO

I'm sorry you haven't had a LinkedIn newsletter for a while (I've just realised LinkedIn says you'll get a weekly instalment)! I wanted to update you on what's taken me so long 🤔


I've been creating a podcast

I've interviewed 10 amazing guests (thank you everyone - it's been such a pleasure & a privilege). It's been a 3 month effort. And I'm happy to say it's just gone live.


The first episode - CEO

Sees me chatting with Karen. She's a CEO in tech. And as a father of 2 daughters, I simply say that we need more women CEOs. Karen is simply, fantastic. Here are a few of my favourite Karen quotes:


Do it your way. Be YOU.
Put your bravery pants on. Have a go.
What would you do if you had no constraints?


I know you'll enjoy listening to her story - here's the link 👇

I've also embedded the episode below (but you'll need to accept cookies first :-)


And here's a link to the channel, where there are 10 episodes live for you to explore covering e.g, AI in strategy, Founding a Start-up and being a COO to name a few.


Now, I know there's like a bazillion podcasts out there

So let me explain why I hope you might want to give this one a try.

  1. I speak very little (I hate the sound of my own voice), instead...
  2. I interview really interesting people in senior roles (CEO, COO, CCO etc) and let them share their stories
  3. I keep them short. They're 15-25mins. The idea is you can do an episode over a quick cup of coffee
  4. They're on YouTube. So, yes, you can actually see our faces. And
  5. If you really can't spare 15mins, you can skip to the parts that most interest you (the chapters are in the YouTube description)


The channel has 10 episodes already live

I hope you enjoy exploring them all. Any feedback is most welcome - please:

  • react to or comment on this article
  • feel free to drop me a message 😀


What next?

I'll be releasing a new episode every 2 weeks or so. Please subscribe to the channel via this link if you'd like to check them out. We'll also be adding them to Spotify soon - do click the bell on my LinkedIn profile if you'd like to know when that's gone live. Thanks for watching 👍

Congratulations on launching your podcast! It's fantastic to see the passion and dedication you have put into this project. Karen's advice is spot on, especially when it comes to entrepreneurship - we often need to step out of our comfort zones and be brave to achieve our goals. It's great to hear that your conversation with Karen was inspiring and insightful. I will definitely give your podcast a listen and hope to learn more from Karen's experiences. Best of luck with your future episodes! Also, It's a fact that investment is very important for any business to grow faster and the right network can make all the difference. That's why I wanted to share this database with over 15,000+ direct investor emails and contacts. It can help you connect with potential investors and boost your chances of success.
