ceoflow-triangle-to-circle-sketchKnow any CEOs feeling overwhelmed while juggling life, employees and the world? I have a great opportunity for both you and the person that refers them to me…

CEOFlow is my coaching program for CEOs. I saw, from being a CEO, working with them and knowing many of them, that it’s easy to create a business that traps you rather than works for you.  It’s also just plain lonely at the top.

While we begin by focusing first just on the CEO themself, because the CEO is the ‘pebble in the pond’ that creates every ripple within the business, the CEOFlow system is about turning your employees into mini-CEOs who can help you run and grow your business like high-level executives.

Here is what is possible for CEOs to experience:

  • A peaceful and centered mind – stress is the enemy (of your and your company’s success)
  • Manage & succeed by being yourself rather than stepping into a different CEO personality at work
  • More enjoyment of your business and your daily work
  • Your ideal combination of money, freedom and adventure

Free CEOFlow Coaching Session (One Available Per Week)

I’m offering a free 30-minute CEOFlow coaching session to one CEO per week (each is a $375 value). Again, for a sense of the specifics of the program and my approach, you can take a look at www.CEOFlow.com/mini-ceos.

How To Apply

Send an email to my Support Goddess Samantha (samantha at pebblestorm dot com), with answers these questions:

  1. How many employees (including part-time or independent contractors) do you have?
  2. If you could wave a magic wand and change 3 things in your business or life right now, what would they be?
  3. What 3-4 things do you feel are holding back the potential of a) your business, and b) you within it?

Looking forward to speaking with you,

Aaron Ross

A Visual Intention For CEOFlow

Do I even need to write anything to describe my intention here, in how CEOs and their people should feel about how the culture and company work?   (Seriously – comment below if I do need to explain further!)

CEOFlow Triangle to Circle sketch

Where Outrageous Growth Comes From

It’s not from having a great product. Or perfect sales and marketing.  Those, for sustained success, are necessary…but what really creates lasting, outrageous growth is customer trust, success and love: that is, customers who love your service and can’t wait to tell others about it!  This is the basis for the massive success of companies like Google, Zappos, Facebook and Salesforce.com.

CEO Sweet Spot

This should be self-evident :)

ceoflow-sweet-spot

CEO as the Pebble In The Pond

Everything begins with the CEO.  Are they centered, or stressed?  The thoughts, feelings and actions of the CEO (whether trusting or fearful) will ripple out through their employees and to the market…and will come back around either as increased or reduced growth:

Problem Multiplication

In command-and-control organizations that have trained employees to require approval from all managers, issues and problems multiply because so many people must touch them.  The companies train people to not make decisions by requiring upper approval for everything.

In a self-managing organization, in which employees are encouraged to make (and live with) their own decisions, the problems are dealt with at the source before they ripple up the organization.

What the text says:

  • Command & Control: Every problem escated / Decsisions pushed up
  • CEOFlow: Problems solved at source / Decisions pushed down

CEOFlow Sweet Spot 1 comment

The CEO is the person who sends the ripples out through the company that will inspire or de-motivate people. To maintain a productive and energizing environment, we need you (the CEO) to stay in a sweet spot as much as possible, so that you can inspire employees and customers just by being who you are.
