The New CEO with Dr Ty Wiggins

André Lacroix was recently featured in “The New CEO” by Dr Ty Wiggins – an insightful book which offers a deep dive into life inside the C-suite and advice for those setting out on their own leadership journey.

The book explores the successes, challenges and important lessons learned along the way, providing personal insights from over 235 senior executives across public and private organisations.

When André sat down with Ty, he told him that the first few months are crucial for any new CEO, as this is when the first decisions are made to determine the future of a business.

There are very few leaders who can really improvise on the spot effectively, so most have to be very well prepared. André argued that leaders need to invest time in developing a precise leadership script that covers the next three, six and twelve months.

Ultimately, he said that this script will be the springboard for an organisation to outperform and exceed all stakeholder expectations in the short, medium and long term.

André is privileged to have been recognised alongside so many other global leaders who together represent an immense resource of knowledge and expertise. He hopes that his advice and anecdotes resonate with others on their own leadership journeys!
